From 1990-1993 I performed in airshows with the Liberty Parachute Team and the Christian Skydivers Association. Many times Bob Hoover was on the same schedule and I am proud to have met and performed with him. I have his autograph in my log book. God bless you Bob Hoover and I wish you eternal peace with God on your flight West.

Almost everybody who likes flying knows who Bob Hoover is. In WW-II he was shot down on his 59th mission, made 24 escape attempts and finally escaped by stealing a German fighter plane. He was Chuck Yeager's chase pilot when Chuck first broke the sound barrier. Many more years of flying feats.

Bob won't rest in peace: he's teaching angels how to do perfect barrel rolls.

11/29/2012 • ARTS AND CULTURE, VIETNAM EXTRA, VIETNAM WAR

 

The mystery monument features the Wendell Willkie quote, "For if we want to fight for freedom, we must be prepared to extend it to everyone whether they agree with us or not...." (Photo: Rich Schwartzman)

A monument dedicated on Nov. 11, 1966, “to the men of Delaware County for their valiant service in Vietnam” was recently discovered beneath brush in an old bank parking lot in Chadds Ford, Pa., an area better known for memorializing the service of soldiers in another war: the 1777 Battle of Brandywine— which might help explain why it has a Revolutionary War–era cannon mounted on top of it.

The discovery of the stone memorial has sparked a great deal of interest. “Chadds Ford’s mystery monument may be the first memorial in the U.S. dedicated to Vietnam veterans,” said Rich Schwartzman of ChaddsFordLive.com. “But so far, no one has been found with any recollection of its dedication, and public records have revealed no information.” The monument is on private property belonging to a family who also know nothing of its history or existence. According to Schwartzman, the property owner only learned of the monument in August, when reporters contacted him.

 

The monument sits about 15 to 20 feet off the side of Rt. 202 on land that is slated for new commercial development. “Weeds are growing through the cracks of the old bank parking lot, and the monument itself is in poor condition,” said Schwartzman.

Perhaps most intriguing about the monument is its dedication date in 1966. While the conflict was rapidly intensifying in 1966, it was still relatively early in the war. According to Duery Felton, curator of the National Park Service’s Vietnam Veterans Memorial Collection, the Delaware County memorial is now “in the lead” for being the oldest, “with the memorial in Wentzville, Mo., dedicated in 1967, a close second.”

Local and state representatives have discussed whether the memorial should be moved to a more public location, pending the property owner’s approval. “Two local businesses said they will pay for the move or institute local fundraising,” said Schwartzman.

Some have also expressed interest in keeping the memorial where it is, though it is in need of repair. “This monument could become an historic landmark, possibly being the first ever honoring Vietnam veterans,” said Patrick Hughes, a Vietnam veteran who visited the site in August, according to Schwartzman. “So, please, just keep it where it is.”

Chadds Ford, PA | Oldest Vietnam Veterans Monument

''We Will Never Forget''

Chadds Ford, PA | Oldest Vietnam Veterans Monument

This 1966 monument to the men of Delaware County who had fought in the early days of the Vietnam War sits just off southbound Route 202 at Hillman Drive, in the parking lot of a now-closed bank branch. On a very cold and windy day in early November 2012 a group of Veterans paid tribute to our fallen Vietnam Veteran Brothers and Sisters.

Steve Quigley who runs a towing company just up the street thinks this Vietnam Veterans Monument deserve better, over the past two years, Steve, his son and some friends have been unofficial caretakers for the monument, knocking down weeds, trimming branches and placing flags on the pole nearby.

Construction to be done on the site it is presently located will prevent it from staying where it is at. A decel lane for the loop road and the intersection of the loop road puts this monument in harm’s way. Steve said that keeping this historic monument in Chadds Ford is the right thing to do. It was built and dedicated in the township and that’s where its home should be.

Readout of Deputy Secretary of Defense Bob Work's meetings in Helsinki, Finland

Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Gordon Trowbridge provided the following readout:
Deputy Secretary of Defense Bob Work held a series of meetings today in Helsinki, Finland, as part of ongoing U.S. efforts to strengthen bilateral and multilateral security relationships with the nations of the Nordic-Baltic region.
Deputy Secretary Work met with Finnish President Sauli Niinisto to thank him for Finland's contributions to the counter-ISIL campaign, peacekeeping operations, and regional security. They discussed ways to continue building the strong, deep and lasting security partnership between the United States and Finland.
Work and Minister of Defense Jussi Niinisto met to sign a bilateral statement of intent that formalizes our two nations' shared desire to cooperate on issues of mutual interest. Deputy Secretary Work and Minister Niinisto discussed steps to implement the statement of intent, which lays a foundation for stronger partnership between the United States and Finland through mechanisms such as sharing of security information and expanded joint training and exercises.
Deputy Secretary Work also participated in the third of a series of multilateral meetings with Nordic-Baltic nations. Building on previous meetings held in Oslo, Norway and Stockholm, Sweden, delegations from Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Sweden and the United States discussed several issues of shared interest. The meeting included an update on NATO's Enhanced Forward Presence effort on its eastern flank, the U.S. European Reassurance Initiative, security challenges in the Baltic Sea region, the status of the campaign to defeat ISIL and opportunities to strengthen security and stability in the region.
Deputy Secretary Work concluded his visit with a first-of-its-kind trilateral meeting with Finnish Permanent Secretary for the Ministry of Defense Jukka Juusti and Swedish State Secretary for Defense Jan Salestrand. The three discussed ways to build on strong bilateral ties among our nations, and agreed to additional trilateral sessions at a working level in Washington later this year.
