Description
Larry
Van
Singel
grew
up
in
Byron
Center
,
MI
, and
volunteered
for the
Army
in
early
1967
since
he
expected
to be
drafted
and
wanted
to have
some
choice
in his
training
and
assignment
. He
initially
served
as a
clerk
at the
9th
Division
headquarters
outside
of
Saigon
, and
traveled
into
Saigon
several
times
during
the
Tet
Offensive
.
Next
he
served
as a
radioman
at a
small
base
in the
Mekong
Delta
. He was
brought
home
early
because
of a
death
in the
family
and
served
the
rest
of his
tour
in the
United
States
. He
discusses
his
own
feelings
about
the
war
and the
difficulties
of
adjusting
to
civilian
life
, as
well
as a
visit
to the
Vietnam
memorial
in
Washington
.
