FROM CHICAGO TO VIETNAM

Free

Registration Required

Both gritty and intimate, From Chicago to Vietnam tells the powerful story of the ensuing epic battle, the Tet Offensive, from the perspective of one brave American soldier, Michael Duffy, whose life, like so many others, would be changed forever. Join Michael Duffy for a fascinating talk about his experience. Michael Duffy grew up in Chicago and received his draft notice at the age of nineteen. While in Vietnam he served as a Forward Observer and Free Direction Control Officer. In the fall of 1968 he was promoted to executive Office of this unit. Battery C consisted of six 105 mm Howitzers that provided artillery support for the infantry in South Vietnam’s III corps.
