This Week On Veterans Radio
6 September 2008
POW in North Korea
Robert Fletcher
Past national commander of American Ex Prisoners-of-War
Join host Gary Lillie and Veterans Radio guest Robert Fletcher, a POW for nearly three years. Robert, an African-American, will tell of the brutal treatment he and his fellow Americans received when, with no food or ammunition, they were forced to surrender. He will tell of how the communists tried to use race to turn American against American. There were good moments, though, such as when an American Sabre jet shot down a Chinese MIG over their camp and, flying low, waggled his wings to them. “They knew where we were!” There was the return to our side of the lines. Your eyes may fill with tears as he describes looking across Freedom Bridge on the day of their release and seeing the American flag flying in the breeze.
Listen Live Every Saturday Morning at 9:00 AM Eastern
That's An Order!
Veterans Radio is dedicated to all the men and women who have served or are currently serving in the armed forces of the United States of America. Our mission is to provide all veterans with a voice, to give them a forum where they are able to discuss their issues, and to provide information to all veterans regarding the rights and privileges they earned by serving their country.
Veterans Radio will include our listener's stories and experiences, not only while in the service, but afterwards as well. Interviews with guest speakers and authors will be a weekly feature. The content of the programs on Veterans Radio will ultimately be determined by our listeners.
"It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, serves under the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag who allows the protester to burn the flag." Author Unknown
Veterans Radio feels it is time for our communities to know who among their neighbors was willing to pay the ultimate price to preserve and protect their basic freedoms. Veterans Radio will act as an advocate for veteran's issues. Politics has no place in determining what is fair for America's veterans. Veterans Radio just wants our politicians to keep their promises. We encourage our listeners to get involved in the political process and to make our voices heard.
