Hearing Vietnam War Stories Firsthand BY CAT SHANNON
For more than a decade, members of the Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA) Chapter 1008 have been visiting local high schools, sharing their stories of their experiences with students. That tradition continued in October at Manheim Central High School, with an upcoming presentation at L ampe terS t ra s b u r g H i g h S c h o o l o n Monday, Jan. 5, 2026. “This group is a really good thing,” said veteran Patrick Gibson. “We all have different stories. We had many similar experiences, but we also had our own experiences.” Gibson, who ser ved as a medic during the Tel Offensive, was a history teacher in York County and said he appreciates this opportunity to share living history with the younger generation. “There’s nothing like having different people talking about the same thing but giving their unique perspective,” he said. “This program keeps the kids interested, because it isn’t just one person standing up there giving a lecture.” At every presentation, education committee chair John Hoober starts the program by having each veteran introduce himself. Then, he reminds the students that the program is their opportunity to engage with the panelists. “We want to know, ‘What do you want to know about the Vietnam War and the Vietnam War era?’” he told a group at Manheim Central. “We’re not here to teach See Stories pg 4

getting better with the drops,” Megan said. “So, I went back and I said it was like a darkness and kind of blurry, and they did a backof-the-eye picture and my optic nerve was swollen, so they sent me straight to the ER from there. They thought it was a tumor.” In September 2020, Megan lost almost all vision in her right eye. “I was here with my dad and my boys, and all of a sudden, I thought, ‘This can’t be happening,’” she said. “I started seeing darkness in this (right) eye. I thought there’s no way, because they said it would never happen again in the other eye.” After Megan spent time in three Pennsylvania hospitals, Lancaster neuro-ophthalmologist Helena Wu-Chen diagnosed Megan with bilateral NAION, a vision loss condition where both eyes are affected by non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, a type of sudden optic nerve damage. In May 2021, Megan developed visual snow syndrome, inflammation in the brain’s visual cortex that causes permanent damage. “I can never escape seeing a blizzard of flickering colors 24/7 even when my eyes are closed,” she said. Megan was beginning to lose hope. “I just kept praying, and then I finally I thought, ‘I’m just going to have to accept this blindness,’” she said. “It is what it is.” Then she heard about a center in Germany that might be able to provide treatment. Megan applied and was approved, and a GoFundMe raised $25,000 to pay for the costs. “When you lose vision like that, you are so desperate to see again, and you can’t,” Megan said. “I had almost no vision and four kids.” She and her dad, Peter Coderre, traveled to Berlin in August 2021 so Megan could receive electrical stimulation treatment from husbandand-wife doctors Anton Fedorov and Julia Chibisova at the Fedorov Restore Vision Clinic. Although changes don’t always take immediate effect, Megan began “seeing” improvement right away. “It’s absolutely amazing,” she said. “I knew, for a fact, if we raised that money, and we prayed, we knew God was going to do huge things.” Megan and her husband, Matt, went back to Berlin in May 2022 for Megan to receive another round of electrical stimulation. Megan has been approved to go to Germany for a third treatment and is considering it. Megan has also dealt with COVID, vertigo, and May-Thurner syndrome. In September 2024, Megan’s fortunes began to rise during a visit to her aunt Catherine Chhabra’s farmhouse in Granby, Conn. “Before we left, she gave me some sourdough starter, and I thought, ‘What am I

team portion,” Jack said. “The individual portion was three hours long. We get a whole farm scenario when you get all the statistics and all the financials of a farm. We get a packet of that, and we have to apply those and interpret them into a whole bunch of questions that were given based on the business, such as what’s the best way to run it?” Trent Thomas was one of 13 L-S students who attended the conference. “For me, (the highlight) was definitely the Expo Center; going in and being able to see the different schools and businesses that were there showing off what they had was really cool to me,” Trent said. “It opened me up to what I could do career-wise later in life. I think it was just a great area to walk around and see what was out there.” Garden Spot FFA members are now busy preparing for the Farm Show. Rex is leading a team that is restoring a 1947 John Deere A tractor, which was donated by the Rough and Tumble Engineers Historical
Association in Kinzers. “They have a program called the adopted tractor program,” Rex said. “They donate the tractor and pretty much sponsor the whole project. Back in the spring, we started to tear it down. We tore it down pretty much the whole way, taking the block and the pistons and everything out of it and then servicing all the parts in it. We did most of that ourselves and then had to ship some things away, but then we started getting everyone involved, cleaning and priming and painting it all. In the last month or two, we started to reassemble it and started troubleshooting and getting it running.” The L-S squad will compete against other schools Saturday, Jan. 17.

Stories from pg 1 a histor y lesson. We want to answer your questions.” Students at the program asked questions about everyday life for the men while they were on active duty. They want to know how they communicated with friends and family back home (writing letters, the veterans told them, since access to a phone was rare) and what their biggest challenges were (“staying alive,” said veteran Mike Mazzaro). For the guys, the program provides an opportunity to share their stories and relive a time in their lives that still impacts them today, more than 50 years later. Bob Chavous was drafted into the Army in May of 1968. Throughout his two years of service, he earned the Silver Star for gallantry in action, received two Purple Hearts and was awarded the Combat Infantryman Badge for flying 25 helicopter combat assaults in 30 days. He came home with stress and anxiety from his experience. At the suggestion of his therapist, he joined the veterans’ group and began sharing his story with students. “It has helped me tremendously to be part of this group,”

he said. “For many years, I didn’t say anything about my service. A lot of guys don’t like to talk about it. But I’m not afraid to talk about it. I want kids to understand we served our country, and we’re proud of it.” Veteran John Dobish, who served in the Army from 1968 to 1970, said the program matters because it connects the veterans to kids who are close to the age they were when they went to war. “We let them know that we had to grow up differently than how they are growing up,” Dobish said. “I was 19 when I got drafted. I want these kids to know what we went through.” Hoober emphasized that the students in the room could probably see themselves reflected in the soldiers who fought in Vietnam. “Most of these guys were 18 or 19 years old,” he said. “This was a young person’s war.” Students at the presentations want to know details about what the soldiers ate for meals, how they handled the terrain and weather conditions, how they were treated upon their return to the United States, and if their feelings about the war have changed over time. Responding to that last question, Hoober said, “The short answer is ‘yes.’ When we were there, we had a job to do. But leaving Vietnam and coming back to civilian life was not easy.” After each presentation, the veterans meet in small groups with students, sharing memorabilia and photographs they’ve brought with them from their time in Vietnam. It’s an opportunity to underscore the real history of our military, Gibson said. “I don’t like when students only see the Hollywood version of Vietnam,” he remarked. “I want them to know what really happened.” The veterans’ school visits are part of the ongoing mission of VVA Chapter 1008 to educate the public about the Vietnam War and honor those who served. The group also participates in community service, such as ringing bells for the Salvation Army during the holidays and sending sympathy cards to families of deceased Vietnam veterans. Chapter 1008 welcomes new recruits who served on active duty in Vietnam between Nov. 1, 1955, and May 7, 1975, or in any duty location between August 5, 1964, and May 7, 1975.

Keira Suter, Anya Sheffer, A n t h o ny Fa n t a z z i , Pa i s l e y Rankin, Emily Simpson, Garrett Thomas, Hewitt Planck, Jackson Allison, Reese Hudler, TJ Bettinsoli, Aiden Glessner, Brayden Welk, Juliette Cummings, and Lucia Proczko will be presented with their FFA jackets. Anthony said, “It really just makes me feel cared for, more included in the FFA, and just really acknowledged and cared for.” Maddux was given a job unrelated to the conference and Farm Show: rejuvenating the Milk Jug awarded to the winner of the annual L-S vs. Solanco football game. “We were tasked with stripping all the paint off, priming it, and then repainting it to look newer and then painted new dates and everything on it, so then we would have a new-looking Milk Jug for the next however many years it’ll last,” he said. “I did the entire stripping down of the paint, and then the repainting, and then we sent it to the art department to do the numbers and stickers.” Adviser Holly Oberholtzer touted the club members’ industriousness. “It makes me very proud,” she said. “I think one thing that I appreciate about them is that they work really hard, so it’s always rewarding when they get a big payout in the end. We have a lot of kids that work really hard, and others don’t always get to see the results.” The teacher noted that club members represent the school and FFA with pride. “I think our kids do a really good job of also trying to promote the organization and our chapter in a really positive light that I think others can see,” she said. “And I think others are taking note of that and supporting them. I think we have a lot of people that are really willing to work with them because they see them as very hard-working individuals and very respectful students that potentially have a future in an agricultural career or a non-agricultural career.”
