Award winning war journalist & co-author of “We Were Soldiers Once…and Young” Joe Galloway joins me

Chris January 1, 2016


Background
share close

This is an interview conducted in 2014, for the students of my friend who is a history teacher, with questions asked by the students. One of my first ever interviews. During the Vietnam War, Joe Galloway worked as a reporter for UPI, beginning in early 1965. Thirty-three years later, he was decorated with the Bronze Star for helping to rescue wounded American soldiers under fire during the battle at Landing Zone X-Ray in the Ia Drang Valley. He is known for co-authoring “We Were Soldiers Once….and Young” with Col. Hal Moore. Immortalised in film by Mel Gibson, with Barry Pepper playing Joe.
