DMC Voices of Service Veterans Edition Nov. 12, 2015
From our Veterans Stories series, which we’re honored to have published over the years in the Double Mountain Chronicle.
In Honor of Veterans Day — November 12, 2015 Edition
From a sun-struck beach in Galveston to Cold War runways and Vietnam airlifts, Major Gordon “Scotty” Daniel’s life takes flight—dogfights, medevacs, and the wisdom earned at 35,000 feet. Then we turn to Navy Seabee Calvin Elkins, whose steady hands built and served from Da Nang to decades at the local co-op. Two American journeys, one common compass: service, grit, and coming home. Press play stories drawn from Veterans Day interviews, hard-won humor, and a salute that lasts longer than a parade.
