Ken McBride has succeeded in having a shortened version of an article he has written about one facet of his Viet Nam experience published in the local newspaper of the hometown of two of his buddies who did not come home. Additionally Ken has helped spur a fund-raiser to assist Veterans take trips to the Viet Nam Memorial Wall in Washington, DC. Ken has been a devoted, interested KHS65 alum for many years, always on the lookout for our classmates and what has become of them. His interest in humanity and how lives play out continues in spades now that he is retired and has more time to explore our shared past. I didn't know Ken at KHS but we have become fast friends over the years encouraged by my admiration and respect for his caring attitude about the people in his life, and his inquisitive mind. Check out the following links to see the newspaper article which is Ken's story, then the second one, telling about the fund-raiser. He has arranged for major news folks to attend the fund-raiser for good publicity.
