The Open Doors Exhibit is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the power of human will, it is also a celebration of that second chance at freedom. As Cdr. Paul Galanti, USN (Ret.) and former Vietnam POW said, "There's no such thing as a bad day when you have a doorknob on the inside of the door," referencing the door in his cell during his time in captivity. The exhibit is produced by portrait photographer Jamie Howren and author Taylory Baldwin Kiland. Taylor Kiland and Jamie Howren spent eighteen months traveling across the nation to interview and photograph the Vietnam War POWs featured in the exhibit in their homes and offices. Kiland and Howren both share the conviction that this group of men has stories to tell and lessons to teach about inner will, the strength of the human spirit, and how ordinary people can endure extraordinary circumstances. Intimate portraits and profiles of 30 former Vietnam POWs are featured in the exhibit. The exhibit is a tribute to Vietnam POWs and MIA and their families for the 50th Anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War.

I am Chair of the state for VWC. I provide material to chapters throughout the state. Up coming event is our state event - Fall Fun Fair where I make available baggies of pins for members to keep in their car for 'PINNING WHERE YOU FIND THEM' state program. also - we will be pinning veterans at the mobile Vietnam Wall memorial at three locations in Ohio. I need to keep stock available. I made a large request through my last request but 100 lapel pins did not come and also pin fact sheet/description sheets were missing. I was told that this request is coming to me but this was a couple of months ago. So - requesting extra due to missing stock and more events that are being held.

Eric & Brian, I hope this finds you both doing well this Friday afternoon. Eric, I hear you transition very soon. Do you have something lined up yet? Please stay in touch as you begin your next chapter. Brian, I learned today from Jim Hannam, copied above, that he is about to attend his 60th reunion of his Air Force Academy class this 8-11 Aug. This class has a number of notables such as Jim himself, and Gen (Ret) Ron Fogelman, who was the 15th Chief of Staff of the USAF from 1994-1997. All of the class of '63 was sent to VN. Although originally 500 in number, obvious not all class members are still with us, and some will have health issues preventing them from attending in person. We were thinking if you could arrange to have 200 pins sent to Jim, he will use what he needs to ensure all that have yet to be pinned are in an appropriate ceremony at the reunion. Then, bring what remains back for the Steele Chapter, a registered commemorative partner, to use at our next Chapter level VN50th event. Jim’s vacation address is: General Delivery Jame T. Hannam518 Brian Ave Silverthorne, CO 80498 Please let me know if you need additional information. Regards//Linda Linda McMahon President, D. W. Steele Sr Memorial Chapter Air & Space Forces Association
