Memorial Day.
Memorial Day is set aside for honoring and mourning the men and women who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.
We at Down Trails of Victory podcast are privileged to present our tribute to the heroes of Memorial Day by telling the story of one of Southeast Texas’ heroes, Army First Lieutenant Bruce Churan. Bruce, a 1966 graduate of Port Neches-Groves High School, is one of the 58,318 names inscribed on the Vietnam Memorial Wall.
Joining Buck and Brad in this special Memorial Day podcast is Bruce’s brother Charles Churan, and Ohio native Jeffrey Coburn, who served with Bruce in the Army’s 1st Cavalry Division light observation helicopter unit in Vietnam.
Bruce’s story is not only a commemoration of his sacrifice, it is also a tribute to the 1.3 million American men and women who have died in service to our country, and the hundreds of millions of lives that they touched.
We wish you a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend.
May God bless the families and comrades of our deceased heroes;
May God bless Southeast Texas; and
May God bless America.
