killed it became hard for him to face that family in his uniform -He wondered why he lived and the Marine died -When he returned home he talked openly about his experiences in Vietnam �-Mostly talked to the kids in the youth group at Coopersville Christian Reformed Church -Feels that because of his experiences and their interest he was more open to talk -Feels that a lot of men came home traumatized and there was nothing to help them readjust -Understood why a lot of men wound up committing suicide, or in mental hospitals -Feels that because of his experiences he was able to readjust faster and easier -Over the years ran into men that were reluctant to talk, and he understands why � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items,

(00:20) Because his parents moved around often Charles spent most of his childhood in Illinois. (00:57) He completed high school in 1967. (1:26) Charles worked selling ice cream for a summer after having graduated high school. (1:57) He began his education at community college in the fall of 1967. (2:08) In October of 1967 Charles decided he wanted to join the Navy. (2:26) He had a history of family members in the Navy. He also had the desire to get away from home and work on the water. (3:00) Charles father did not approve of him joining the military. (4:00) Training (4:36) • • • • • • • • He was sent to a building on Van Buren Street in Chicago where he went through assembly line style with 50 other men to receive physicals. (40:40) He was sent to Great Lakes Naval Base in Illinois. He found his own transportation to the base. (5:13) When the men arrived they were referred to as “receipts”; after being placed in a company they were then called recruits. (6:20) He did not believe that basic was all that difficult. (6:50) Basic training lasted 13-14 weeks. (7:35) Charles had a difficult time adjusting to the Navy initially. He was used to having very little privacy however it was the psychological stress of not going to college and the fact that many of his family members had been officers in the Navy that got to him. (7:45) At the end of training the men put in requests as to what positions they wished to fill. There was pressure for him to go into the nuclear training in the Navy due to his high aptitude test scores. However this was a 6 year service rather than 4. He put down cook and hospital corpsman for his position. (9:34) There was such a great need for hospital corpsmen that any man who expressed a slight interest in the field was taken. Charles knew little about the situation in Vietnam when he signed up. (10:50) Medical Corps Training (12:30) • • • This training lasted 15 weeks at Great Lakes Naval Base. The training involved intensive studding. Class lasted from 8 AM to 4PM. (12:30) Charles thought that he was not good enough to keep up with the intensive studding and tried to drop out but decided against it. (13:15) After 3 weeks of training, another company was assigned alongside Charles. (14:37) �• • • Charles was in training in mid 1968 when the Tet Offensive ended. At this time wounded soldiers were brought in from Vietnam to Great Lakes. This is when the men all became aware of how many casualties there were from the war. (15:10) Charles did pass his training in spite struggling often and failing to fit in due to his lack of drinking. (15:51) The men learned that most new corpsmen were sent to a hospital for 6-8 weeks for some training in the wardss. Then the men were sent to Camp Lejeune and then Vietnam. For a period of time the men would work at a field medical station and then in the bush for 6-8 months. (16:44) First Assignment: Naples, Italy (17:41) • • • • • • • • • • • • Charles was first assigned to work in Naples, Italy, along with 2 other men he had previously trained with. (17:42) He began working in a hospital. It was very hot and not air-conditioned. Charles felt fairly unsure of himself at this time. (19:12) The Corpsmen Charles was with often drank on their free time. Because Charles didn’t drink he felt unable to fit in. (20:14) The nurses were Charles's supervisors. Often they complained about his penmanship being poor. (20:40) He was in Italy from May to December of 1968. (21:15) Charles did travel to Rome while working in Italy. (22:00) When he returned to the hospital he found out that he was supposed to fill out a request form to leave the city. (24:21) The Italians mostly ignored the American military men. (25:19) There were men who worked in Italy that spent their entire enlistment there and never moved. (26:05) Charles learned that one of the Corpsmen was selling drugs. He informed the office of Naval Intelligence which set him up as an informant. When the deal was busted 12 fellow corpsmen were also turned in. (26:47) Naval intelligence then arranged an immediate transfer so that Charles did not get hurt by men who were angry with him. (28:55) Charles was then sent to VP26 in Maine. (29:50) Service in Maine (29:52) • • • • • He arrived in late December of 1968. (29:55) The men in Maine were hesitant to place Charles in any position due to poor evaluation in Italy. They asked for Charles's side of the story and decided to give him a chance. (30:36) Finally Charles began to fit in after several months in Maine. (32:12) The men who were often on the base flew PT Orions. The plains were used to drop buoys in the water to help track submarines. (32:55) In 1969 Charles was deployed with the Squadron that flew PT Orions in Iceland. (34:57) Deployment with Unit (35:05) �• • • • • • • • • He was first sent with his unit to Iceland. While serving in Iceland the men came across a Soviet Alpha. (35:06) Most of the time Charles was left on the base but occasionally he was taken aboard the aircraft. (35:58) The men were then deployed to Sicily (37:16) One of Charles corpsmen helped him serve soft drinks to Marines in order to make some money. (38:31) He was then sent to London. He remembered having a lot of freedom.(40:04) He and his friends also had a chance to ride through the Alps.(41:27) Charles made about 95 dollars a month. (41:52) When he left Sicily, Charles's motor cycle was flown back to the U.S. aboard a plane. (43:00) The day before he was to be discharged he was informed that due to low leadership scores and the failure to be evaluated since then on leadership, Charles was not recommended for reenlistment. This did not mean much to Charles at the time (44:09) Life after Service (45:34) • • • • He attended Quincy College in Illinois after having served. (45:10) He thought that the Navy was a fairly good experience. (45:30) After having received his master’s degree at the age of 35, he attempted to reenlist. He was eventually turned down as a result of his low leadership scores given in Naples. (45:45) He feels very sympathetic for veterans and spouses of military men hen he meets them. (46:56) Life in the Military (47:32) • • • • • • • Charles lived in a large trailer while in Maine. He often met many people from his service. (47:32) The Italians often just left the military men alone. Some tried to take advantage of the men but this was rare. (49:10) The Corpsmen were typically white. There were, however, several African Americans and Hispanics. (50:27) There was one man who was ordered to stay in the dispensary until he lost weight but in reality it was because he was black. (52:08) The most tension that was seen in the military was between career servicemen and those who desired to serve only 1 term. (53:03) One of the surgeons placed a Jimi Hendrix poster on the ceiling of the operating room. (54:03) Charles and other men would often play poker as a way to stay entertained. (55:50) Effects of Service (56:15) • • • • • After completing his service Charles had a stronger sense of self. (56:21) Charles started out learning Psychology and Philosophy. He decided he wanted to be a clinical psychiatrist but did not have the GRE scores. (58:02) He then began working a job in counseling. He was later laid off. (59:00) After being laid off he was given a dislocated service grant. He then went into culinary school at Grand Rapids Community College. (1:00:05) He then began working at the culinary department at Michigan State. (1:01:12) �• • • He was then encouraged to pursue a PhD. (1:02:06) Charles was required to take the GRE and this time improved his scores. (1:03:14) He has written a book about the education of an adult.
