Grenade bonds Port St. Lucie and Vietnamese men for life Patrick McCallister For Veteran voice

patrick.mccallister@yahoo.com

Nothing bonds men more strongly than shared brushes with death. Port St. Lucie’s Ronald Yeaw was a Navy SEAL in Vietnam. He fought alongside a lot of men, but was significantly wounded in combat only once. That once was alongside Nguyen Hoang Minh. “I met Minh on 12 March, 1968,”Yeaw said. “I had just joined that platoon that day.” The two did little more than exchange pleasantries. Their relationship was off to an unremarkable start. About 30 hours later, their contact would end altogether after spending only a few of them together. “We went out the next night,” Yeaw continued. “That was the day we ran into the main force, reinforcement battalion, and got the same grenade.” Got a Chinese-made grenade that was exploding. He continued, “I got shrapnel all up the left side. He got it up the front. The third person in the (thatch hut), Chief Bob Gallagher, got it up the right side.”

Book review: ‘Sir, I Can Explain’ By Stephen D. Cork Copyright July 1, 2013, published by Koehler Books of Virginia Beach and New York City

In this second book in the series featuring Major Jennifer O’Shane, Col. Stephen Cork once again has the extraordinary U.S. Army MP officer traveling around the world thwarting a sinister criminal syndicate’s plans in an exciting, action packed adventure. O’Shane is simply trying to fulfill her duties as the MP in charge of General Penfant’s security on a trip to Saudi Arabia, but faces obstacles in the form of the head of Saudi security, who openly shows his disdain for women in positions of authority or responsibility. O’Shane successfully completes that task, and in the process earns the admiration and loy-

alty of the Saudi crown prince while unwittingly violating religious mores of a powerful Muslim sect in Saudi Arabia. She returns to her more mundane duties as an Army major and MP, only to be confronted again by a male chauvinist in the form of Colonel Everett, an aide to General Penfant, who assumes she is not up to his standards, and that she exaggerates her accomplishments, and treats her accordingly. The current events involving the Snowden disclosures about NSA have prompted discussion and debate on the issue of privacy versus security. Col. Cork, in the character of Major Shane, perhaps without intending to do so, highlights the issue of individual initiative versus military rules and regimentation. While the army recruiting campaigns feature an “Army

But Yeaw thought about Minh. “Probably 1,000 times, if not 2,000 times,” he said. tortured,” Yeaw said. But survived. The two recently met at the National Navy UDT-SEAL Museum in Fort Pierce. Minh stayed in Sebastian for a few days to visit with many of his former U.S. Navy companions. “It was magnificent to see him,” Yeaw said. “He didn’t recognize the face, but he recognized the name.” Veteran Voice reached Minh by telephone when his wife, Hyunh Thi Nhi, and he were in Virginia to meet others from the legendary SEAL Team Two. A translator helped facilitate the conversation. Even with the aid of a translator, Minh seemed to wrestle with answering many questions. The translator, John Tran, said Minh was exhausted from time-zone changes and traveling, along with being emotionally overwhelmed by seeing many former collogues. “I very enjoyed when I come to see the museum and my friends,” Minh said. He explained that he was a member of South Vietnam’s navy when he started translating for American patrol boat, river crews. He eventually discharged from his nation’s military, but continued working with Americans. Eventually, he went to work with SEAL Team Two. “When 1967, I got out of the Vietnamese navy, and I volunteered to work for SEALs,” he said.

In 1975, communists captured Minh and took him to a re-education camp. By July of ’76, the unified Vietnam shed its old separate names and became the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. According to various estimates, at least a million Vietnamese were put into the notorious prisons without charges or trials. Many died. Minh said he spent 28 months in the re-education camps. He was accused of being a CIA agent. “Because I worked for the Americans,” he said. After Yeaw recovered from his wounds in the United States, he went onto a stellar naval career. He served from 1965 to 1995. “Among my 45 medals, nine of them came with a combat V,” he said. And he has another claim to bragging rights, although SEALs seem to loathe bragging. “In my career, I commanded SEAL Team Six,” the guys that got (Osama bin Laden),” Yeaw said. The was from ‘90 to ‘92. He said it takes a certain personality to be in the SEALs.

Local Korean War veterans prepare to remember ‘The Forgotten War’ Patrick McCallister For Veteran voice

patrick.mccallister@yahoo.com

It’s approaching 60 years now. On July 27, 1953, the Korean War ended without ending. That day an armistice was signed that stopped the shooting, but left the world perilously hanging on an edge called the 38th Parallel. Frequently folks call it “The Forgotten War.” Members of the Korean War Veterans Association will remember it on Saturday, July 27, at 10 a.m. The memorial, which will be open to the public, will be at Vero Beach’s Veterans Memorial Island Sanctuary. Parking is at 350 Dahlia Drive. The armistice created the Korean Demilitarized Zone and cracked the Korean Peninsula into different worlds more than different countries. It remains a glaciated remnant of the Cold War. Many warn that holdout of an otherwise bygone era could ignite into a consuming, possibly nuclear, fire. Maybe, but Joseph Gomez, commander of the Korean War Veterans Association’s Indian River County chapter, 318, said getting word of the armistice was the best news he’d heard in 1953. Gomez was an Army rifleman on the ground when the news hit. “We put our heads out of our foxholes,” he said in a telephone interview. “That was it. It was like a Sunday morning. No noise.” Gomez wasn’t thinking about politics, or what the future held

fight fires, you shouldn’t be a firefighter,” he said. No doubt, all the American service members who went to Vietnam were courageous, particularly those who knew constant engagements with enemy forces were their lot. “We didn’t go to Vietnam and stay in Vietnam with a real sense of the political implications,” Yeaw said. “The SEALs went because it was combat.” He said Vietnamese like Minh who helped the Americans were in many ways more courageous than SEALs. “We were fighting for far different reasons than Mihn was fighting for,” Yeaw said. “We’d go for six months and go home, but that was his home.” A home that could become a very dangerous place after the shooting war was done, as Minh experienced. Minh laughed off suggestions that he was courageous. When he was in combat situations with SEALs, he was… Well, he was with SEALs. “Sometimes I met the Viet Cong, but I was never afraid of them,” he said.

There’s not much biting in the heat of August and only the locals are out there trolling for an elusive catch. It seems like the only thing out there biting is bonito, so that’s just what this new fishing tournament on Saturday, Aug. 24, with $2,500 in cash prizes is all about, that, and a healthy dose of support for the local community. It’s mostly hot and disappointing fishing in August, but that doesn’t keep fishing enthusiasts from the sport they love. So when two friends joked about who would win if there was a prize for the biggest bonito last summer,

of One,” and the design of small, autonomous Special Forces teams promote freedom of action, Major O’Shane frequently has to justify herself and her actions, hence the name of the book. Fortunately, the book doesn’t dwell on the issue, but rather moves swiftly and seamlessly from one gripping adventure to another. Major O’Shane’s nemesis, Louis “El Toro” Esquedas, is an evil, sadistic and perverted man, which makes him the ideal villain and contributes to some interesting interaction with Carlotta, his daughter, and with two of his top assistants, Francisco Gutierrez and Vladimir D’Alexandreapov, an ex-KGB chief. Esquedas has both a business and personal vendetta against O’Shane, as she was previously involved in the death of his son, which Cork wrote about in his previous book featuring O’Shane, Knight Moves. While O’Shane is very bright, and can’t resist investigating what appears to her (and sometimes only hers) odd or potentially illegal situations, she is not invincible and occasionally has to be bailed out at the last second by the calvary. The calvary comes in many forms, including friends, superior officers, the Saudi Prince’s guard, and even the president of the United States. When O’Shane sees something amiss, she pursues it with gusto, which often puts her in conflict with her commanders, who

they decided it wasn’t such a crazy idea. “It’s not just the fishing that’s off in August” said co-chair, Kit Munroe. “We wanted to create a fun and affordable tournament that would help support our business community in the slow summer months and raise money to support our local veterans. We focused on Wounded Warriors of South Florida because they offer hands on support with housing, transportation and finances for the veterans of Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom and, as funds are available, the Desert Storm vets in our area.”

consistently attempt to rein her in and focus her on being the MP she is supposed to be. Her intuition leads her to prevent an assassination, although the intended target becomes somewhat murky, to intercept a boat load of sex slaves, which involves outwitting the general in charge of Special Forces, using prototype Navy SEAL equipment that is top secret, and to intrude into Cuban territorial waters. These escapades result in her detention by Col. Everett, but don’t prevent her from ultimately bringing down the entire drug and sex slave network without the assistance of the INTERPOL director she is supposed to be working with. In the process she uncovers other important facts which continue to add twists to the story, making it more than just an action adventure. The very believable frustration O’Shane experiences in dealing with the inaction, lack of imagination, and general inertia of the Army bureaucracy she deals with on a daily basis appear to be familiar to Col. Cork and perhaps too well described to be something learned second-hand. Cork’s military experience and knowledge of the operations of the Army clearly come through and help make some situations and actions by both O’Shane and her commanders and staff realistic and believable, and certainly a pleasure to read about. ‘Sir, I Can Explain’ is available on Amazon in paperback $12.51, Kindle $5.99.

that summer morning. Well, he was thinking about one future — his. “Everybody felt the same way,” he said. “The only thing on our minds was, ‘When can we go home?’” After the war, Gomez and his wife, Gay, raised some children and ran a business in New York. As they got older, they did what a lot of Korean War veterans do these days — moved to Florida. Today the youngest Korean War veterans are 78. In 2010 the Florida Department of Veterans Affairs reported that 180,000 of the state’s about 1.6 million veterans served during the Korean War. Today it believes there are 178,000 Korean War veterans in the Sunshine State, Steve Murray, communications director, said. “It sounds like (the population) pretty much held its own,” he said in a telephone interview. “The case could be made that due to age many are passing away. At the same time, these men and women are naturally coming down to Florida to take advantage of climate, economy and family.” Around 327,000 American service members served in or in direct support of the Korean War. Of those, 36,516 died in combat, or as a result of supporting operations. About 294,000 Floridians served in the military from 1950 to 1953. Of those who served in Korea, or in support of that war, 577 died, according to the National Archives. Different death numbers are reported for both the national and state levels. With the war ended only with an armistice, many question whether those men and women died in vain. Many wonder if the war’s conclusion was passed down the decades to another generation. “Wars are fought at a time when you can no longer talk to each other,” Korean War veteran John Howard said in a previous inter-

view. “You can’t really talk to (the Around 327,000 American service members Democratic People’s Republic of served in or in direct support of the Korean War. Korea).

Junior anglers (under 12) can fish free and will be recognized for their catch. “Early on, we had support for the idea.” said Nippy Pauels, cochair. “Blue Marlin Motors is our presenting sponsor and Manatee Island Bar and Grill in Port Salerno is going all out to provide us with great food and atmosphere for the Captains Meeting on Friday night and the Awards Presentation Dinner on Saturday. Even the weigh-in station will be at their dock.” Support also came from Carey Chen, world renowned marine artist, and Tara Biek Creative.

Carey and Tara collaborated to create a logo for the event that will become part of the tournament shirt this year. They will be available for sale at the event for $15. A decal of the logo is being offered for sale now and, as a Nibbler Sponsor, you can get one for your $10 donation.

A Captains Meeting and barbecue will be held at Manatee Island Grill on Friday, Aug. 23 at 7 p.m. and will feature a live auction, raffle and Chinese auction.

VA health care facilities named to 2013 ‘Most Wired’ hospitals list From the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs FOR VETERAN VOICE WASHINGTON – The Department of Veterans Affairs, representing 152 VA medical centers, was recently named to the 2013 “Most Wired” hospitals list. The list, which is released by Hospitals & Health Networks, in partnership with McKesson, the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives and the American Hospital Association, is the result of a national survey aimed at ranking hospitals that are leveraging health information technology in new and innovative ways. “At VA, we are committed to expanding access to high quality care for our Nation’s Veterans,” said Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric K. Shinseki. “As the nation’s largest health network, VA is continuously working to improve and enhance our understanding of which technologies best meet the needs of our veteran patients.” Over the past year, VA has provided veterans and VA health care teams with 21st century health care through the use of

new and innovative technology. Some examples are: • telehealth being used in Veterans homes as an adjunct to traditional face-to-face care; • recent VA Blue Button enhancements that allow improved access to critical patient medical information; • deployment of asset tracking devices; • the use of technology to better link specialty care providers to primary care physicians in rural areas. The survey, which was conducted between Jan. 15, 2013 and March 15, 2013, polled 1,713 hospitals and health systems nationwide to answer questions regarding their information technology initiatives. Overall, roughly 30 percent of all U.S. hospitals were surveyed. “VA is honored to have its integrated health care system on the ‘Most Wired’ hospitals list for the first time ever,” said Dr. Robert Petzel, Undersecretary for Health in the Department of Veterans Affairs. “VA is dedicated to providing veteran patients with the best experience possible.

VETERAN VOICE • THE VOICE OF EXPERIENCE • JULY 26, 2013 • 11

anD our obJeCtIVe

Veteran Voice is a weekly publication designed to provide information to and about veterans to veterans and to the broader community. Veterans are an integral part of their Florida communities, which currently have individual organizations of their own, such as the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the American Legion, the Vietnam Veterans of America and many other groups with a narrow focus, but no convenient way to connect to a wider population of veterans and to the community in general within a limited geographic area, their community. The mission of Veteran Voice is to publish a weekly source of information that will provide, in one place, a listing of resources available to veterans, articles about changes in policies or organizations affecting veterans and events of interest to veterans as well as articles about veterans of interest to the general public. Veteran Voice LLC is organized as a partnership of experienced newspaper executives with an interest in veterans and in the communities of Florida veterans and friends. Veteran Voice is a start-up intended to address a perceived lack of information readily available to veterans on programs and policies affecting them and objective reporting of veteran affairs to the public. To our knowledge, and based on comments from leaders of local veterans organizations, there was no media or website currently meeting this need until the launch of Veteran Voice. We hope you agree, and will support this publication with your subscription. Without subscriptions there will be a limited number of people we can help, without which this mission will not be realized. As part of our commitment to supporting local veteran communities, we will donate 10 percent of our profits each quarter to qualified veteran charities recommended by you, our readers and subscribers. Please let us know what you think by emailing news@veteranvoiceweekly.com or mailing your comments to us at 1919 S.W. South Macedo Blvd., Port St. Lucie, FL 34984.
