Australian Diggers Stories From The Vietnam War
from Historic Military Interviews · host John
The National Vietnam Veterans Museum is a non-profit organisation that was set up to remember and recognise Australian diggers who returned from Vietnam. The museum is not focused on the war aspect but more on the everyday stories of diggers and the challenges during their time in Vietnam and after their return. The museum houses many artefacts such as medals, letters and photos donated by veterans, but it also has a unique collection of military equipment such as helicopters, trucks and jeeps. There are displays that tell you about life on base camp, daily activities and what it was like when they were at war.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/historic-military-interviews--5668402/support.
