We have a special live broadcast from UW-Green Bay as we preview this weekend’s LZ Lambeau Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans reunion at historic Lambeau Field. Host Glen Moberg will moderate a discussion with a panel of local Vietnam veterans and event organizers, as we look back at their service to our country during the turbulent events of the Vietnam era. The LZ (or Landing Zone) Lambeau event will feature a motorcycle honor ride, The Moving Wall Vietnam memorial, and a tribute Saturday evening with military flyovers, music, excerpts from the new public television documentary Wisconsin Vietnam War Stories, a tribute to the 1,244 KIA and MIA Wisconsin soldiers and a formal “Thank you and welcome home” from Gov. Jim Doyle. Vietnam veterans, their families and friends are encouraged to call this special Route 51 program live so we can broadcast their personal tributes and remembrances.
