Our Siloam Springs High School U.S. History students have been diving into their study of the Vietnam War! This week, a group of Vietnam Veterans generously took time out of their schedules to visit our students, sharing their firsthand experiences through a panel discussion. They answered thought-provoking questions, offering powerful reflections on both the hardships and moments of joy they encountered.
Their memories ranged from the camaraderie of singing Christmas carols all night in a cave to the relief of seeing their friends still standing beside them after battle. Some recalled lighter moments, like playing flag football on the flight deck when things were slow or the simple joy of mail time and an ice-cold glass of water in the sweltering heat of Vietnam.
We are incredibly grateful for these veterans' willingness to share their stories and bring history to life for our students! #PantherNation
