"This month we're talking about visionaries. Today's visionary lived their life challenging gender and questioning identity. They refused to be defined or confined by the societal norms for women in the early 20th century. Let's talk about Claude cahoon. Claude kahun was born on October 25th, 1894 in not France. While alive, Claude used she her pronouns. But Claude for much of their life spoke about living a gender neutral existence. So for this episode, we'll be using they them pronouns. Claude came from a highly intellectual middle class Jewish family. Their father, Maurice Schwab, owned a newspaper. Their uncle, Marcel Schwab, was a renowned symbolist writer, and their grandfather, David Leon kahun was an influential orientalist. Claude's mother struggled with mental illness. So Claude was mostly raised by their grandmother. It was from her that clot adopted the last name kahun. After some anti semitic incidents at their school in France, Claude did a brief stint at a boarding school in England when they were 12. But their mental health began to suffer in their teen years. They struggled with anorexia, suicidal thoughts and crippling depression. When Claude returned to Nantes, they met their soulmate and lifelong partner, Suzanne Malay. Their first meeting was electric and their relationship was characterized by their love of art and similar schools of thought. During a time when two women in a romantic relationship was seen as unconventional. Claude and Suzanne were able to disguise their relationship with stepsisters. When Claude's father remarried Suzanne's mother years later. Around 1919, Claude and Suzanne moved to Paris. It was during this period that the couple adopted the gender neutral names of Claude cahoon and Marcel Moore. The transition to Claude was a rejection of sexual and gender norms. In Paris, Claude studied literature and philosophy at the sorbonne. They and Marcel began hosting salons for forward thinking writers and artists to discuss social justice issues. Claude had dabbled in photography as a teenager, but it wasn't until the 1920s that they began investing their time and energy into the medium. With Marcel's help, Claude produced compelling, highly staged, sometimes playful images of themselves. The demonstrated their place on the fringes of the surrealist movement. Claude would orchestrate and pose for the photo, while Marcel would snap the shot. It was a collaborative effort. Claude was styled as a variety of characters and genders. Usually with an element of undermining societal expectations for women. Professor David gesi at the school of the Art Institute of Chicago described Claude as an artist who turns the camera on themselves to see who else they can become. For Claude and Marcel, the photographs were less about producing art and being famous, and more about being free. In addition to their photography, Claude was also producing literary works. In 1925, they published heroines, a series of monologues that contained witty comparisons of female fairytale characters to the modern day view of women. 5 years later, they published a collection of poems, dreams and essays featuring surrealist photo montages called Ava non avenues. The goal was to condemn conservatism in France. With fascism on the rise in the 1930s, Claude became more involved in politics. They joined a French association of revolutionary artists and writers. Many of whom were surrealists. Taking advantage of their growing popularity, Claude used their art as a form of indirect activism against the French Communist Party. In 1937, Claude and Marcel moved to Jersey, a British island between England and France. Claude still produced literary and photographic art. But their connection to the broader world was minimal. The local Jersey residents referred to them as Les madams, meaning the ladies. Claude and Marcel witnessed nazism spread throughout Europe. When the Germans invaded Jersey in 1940, the couple did not go down without a fight. Because of their unsuspecting outward identity as two older women. They were able to secretly spread anti Nazi propaganda among soldiers. They wrote short messages on small pieces of paper under the guise of an unhappy soldier. The messages included sentiments such as the war was lost. Hitler was a vampire, and it was time for the German troops to look out for themselves. Cloud and Marcel slipped these notes to cigarette packets, uniform pockets and any other nook they could find. In July of 1944, Claude and Marcel's resistance came to an end when they were arrested and sentenced to death. They were released almost a year later when the island was liberated from Nazi rule in May of 1945. Clod and Marcel returned home, only to find that the Nazis had destroyed much of their art. Claude's resistance efforts were recognized and awarded in 1951 with the medal of French gratitude. Claude cahoon died on December 8th, 1954 at the age of 60. Marcel Moore took her own life 18 years later. The two are buried together under a single gravestone, engraved with their birth names.

"I'm still trying to figure that out. So if you've got some good ideas. Steve just send me. Send me an email. But i haven't quite resolved that that particular issue yet. Yeah it's funny because recently We did interview with un authored that has always written Like historical pieces like yours. And then he had just mentioned to his first novel whereas writing fiction historical fiction and i asked him about it and he said it was really different going from one john to the next. Did you find that The same Obviously it was opposite view. You had written historical fiction. Now you're going into telling true story did you find that Tough as well. Yes yeah. I did it. It is a tremendous change. The first two books. The first book is called the man with a black box in the second. One is called charlie calling and they are historical fiction. But they're mystery thriller so the kind of Shortwave describing is because there are some some supernatural stuff. in it it's kind of like sherlock holmes chasing dracula or something and the thing about fix the historical fiction side. I really enjoy. Because i'm a history buff. I guess i guess. I'm an amateur historian and so there's a lot of research involved with that but when you write a novel you're just making it up you know it's it's Nobody can tell you what the characters are supposed to be like what they say or other than you know. You're unless they're a historical figure. Like i have teddy roosevelt in both books. And some of the you know Sir grey and lord lansdowne in some of the british guys but For me honestly steve. Writing fiction with i found was easier. It was a much more stream-of-consciousness when you're writing a novel and when you write nonfiction you gotta get it right. And so there's there's a ton of research that goes into it. I knew there was gonna be a lot helicopter pilots who flew in vietnam. They were reading this book. And the i had to make sure it was so accurate that they couldn't find fault with it. You know that they had to read it and say yeah. That's that's what happened. That's that's what she got now You know as i point out if you were to go to a a if you're a witness a car wreck today if you have ten witnesses you get ten different stories. So i'm trying to write about events that happened more than fifty years ago and At some point he just gonna have to do the best you can and and hope that she got the most accurate story you could but it it was. I found it to be a lot more work than i thought was going to be. It took me two years to write the book and that was pretty much. You know working on almost fulltime. Just stick to get to get accurate. I guess so it. Yeah it was very different. Yeah that was answered my next question. I was going to ask you how long the project took from start to finish because obviously events that are living in different parts of the country. I don't know if you actually went and visited with them. Just talked telephonically or actually met them in person. But i'm sure it was. There's a lot of money. Most of them were over the phone. i did i did. There is one bet in dallas. Might my chapter. Three vet chris gilbert. Who actually chris. You asked earlier about sort of the inspiration for the book. He's the guy that caused me to put the purple heart angle into mended wings. Because because chris was a purple heart bet. And i. And i knew him very well and i i highly respected him and so that was sort of my The inspiration to go that that way. I actually interviewed chris directly. And then chris later sorta became a technical adviser on the book for me Because i wanted to have at least one other vietnam vet other than the guy that i was writing the chapter on to to sort of vet each chapter and to see if we spotted anything. And you know chris is an interesting guys well when you read his story and the things that he did As i mentioned in the book a coast guard aircraft. That chris flu is now in the smithsonian and chris's helmet bag is in that is in that aircraft from emission. He flew very dramatic mission. That's detailed in the book as well That happened off the coast. Texas is very terrible american accident. So yeah you know it's funny. You mentioned that. Because i was just talking to somebody about the aaron space museum of the smithsonian. I was like well the next time i go up there. I'm definitely going to have to look for that as you said his helmet is. You have to kind of look forward. But it's in the seat you know kind of hidden from view. So that's something i'm definitely will look for But dumb yeah this this book it you know for listeners out there i can't recommend it enough. It was like i said it was a page. It delves into a very diverse group of helicopter pilots. They all come from different backgrounds. I guess they're all the one thing that other than the love of flying Linked him altogether was like they were kind of adrenalin junkies. They they liked action sports. Maybe not so much team sports individual sports in you know when you when you look at the story and then as you said some of the vets that reached out to you. I encourage all of our listeners again. Check out this book mended wings because it tells some horrific stories what these guys went through and it was is very moving. And it's like i said when i got to Chapter ten. I was very disappointed in the book because it wasn't a chapter eleven so We can't recommend yet and they're they're all. Thank you steve. And any other. They're all they're all. They all suffered different injuries. In as you noted some of these guys were hurt. Very badly And some of them not so much you know. Some of them may be they were they were convalescing for a few weeks and they're back in the cockpit but that's that's only part of their of the trauma they suffered in in. It's it's almost like it's kind of weird but it's it's almost like the the end burst of the physical trauma suffered is the emotional trauma that you suffered And i think there was that psychology there for a lot of these guys that they just. It's very difficult for four. And i've not been in combat so i can't again although within the army i've never been in combat so i have not experiences firsthand but my observation is that For the guys that came back unscathed or or with minor injuries. It's very difficult for them to get their head around the fact that they're they're buddies. Were the ones that suffered the worst and they can't. It's hard for them to accept. That's that's really really hard And so i. I found that interesting as well when i was when i was going through this war. And maybe that's where know that. The vietnam wall is is to some extent very helpful to this generation and i. I mentioned that a few times in the book but and also i had the opportunity to to to jan scruggs. Who's the founder of the vietnam war memorial About the book as well. And i thank him for for having had the courage and the foresight to really push that project through because i think most vietnam vets For them the ability to go and and to see those names and the touch the wall and kind of Released some of those feelings is helpful but And i'm hoping that books like this like minted wings is also helpful in that regards. Well well we really appreciate your time this afternoon. We appreciate the the bulk obviously and again mended wings all of our listeners. Out there in our readers for software dot.

"And one of my friends in that was a member of the hundred and first in one hundred and seventy thirty airborne did a couple of tours in vietnam talked about When he came home from last tour they told them when they were going into l. A. not to wear the uniforms and he was like the hell with ad. Excuse my language. But he's like i'm gonna wear my uniform paratrooper and he said he got spit on in l. a. x. so i'm sure At home to of our little town in massachusetts the they told him. Hey make sure you take off uniform even around here you know. Even though this year back home in the hometown you know people are very upset with the way the war's going in they ended up blaming the guys who had no blame that They weren't making any of the decisions zip to get us in or out of vietnam. They just answered their countries call. And it's it's interesting because the vietnam vets they had. They never got that. Welcome home parade and and to get back to your earlier. Point is probably what the best twenty twenty five years. That's kinda changed. Yeah i it's been very slow to change for sure. Because even when i know when when you and i were in the military in the eighties i- stove. I still felt like there was some animosity out. There towards people in in uniform certainly certain parts of the country Yohan we were. I i went through. Rotc before i i did my you know the big green machine actual trainy and we were discouraged from wearing our uniforms off off campus. And then when. I was a four door california. I mean this is in the mid eighties. you are discouraged from wearing your uniform off base because people didn't appreciate the military in your likely to get some attention drawn to that that you didn't want and it's not just the you mentioned your guy Wearing a uniform through lax then There was a very easy way to tell who was on one sardi argument who is on the other if you're man and that is that if you are in the military recently in the military your hair was cut very short and everyone else made a point to where there are harry. Their hair very long and so it was very easy to spot vets or soldiers whether they are in uniform or not. That was kind of the purpose. Because they knew that you had to keep your hair short if you're in the military and so if you if you didn't wanna be thought of as being the military you you grew your hair on and and that's what happened eddie. Hester when he walked through the airport in. Lax he was not in uniform. It says he had short hair and so they made that assumption. But as speaking. Eddie a stephen just i kinda figured you know when you mentioned that you are in the The walk training at fort rucker alabama head. He's the one who who had the story about the candidate frog. And i'm sure you looked at that story and thought i completely get that. I completely understand how all that happened. I'm just guessing role. Yes I could tell you. I went through Worn officer candidate training with one of my best friends from special forces and this guy. His name was weighed. he was a total character in. He took great delight in pushing back against attack officers. Like in your book. There's a lot of stories about the tax officers. How nasty they are in which they are. I mean i guess that's part of the deal you getting these kids straight from high school that that's probably needed with a bunch of ten twelve year vets In special forces. You know we don't wanna hear that. So my buddy. Wade was always pushing back in him in this other. Sf guy named brian. They decided when we put on punishment. Because we weren't scared enough of the tax offices They said you have to clean all the tax officers Offices so. Brian went down to the px. Magma you remember those old kodak slash falls those little square. You've you'd put on the camera to take so. Brian was a he was a. He was a demolitions expert so he wired all the tax officers desk draws with these little flash cubes were when they opened it. it would just pop the flash. I mean nothing's going to happen to him but it would just startled so. He wired all their desks. Says the next morning you know. They come in about four o'clock in the morning 'cause they would get us up about four fifteen. We're already all dressed. We went to the empty building next to us. It was straight across the tac officers. So we're all got faces planted. There are watching him in. They all command. They're shooting the breeze and then the one guy sit his desk opens it in that thing pops he sees this flash any jumped out of his tests in you could hear him constant so then he's like pulls next door open it goes off and then they're all sitting there. They're all laughing about it where we were shocked. We thought they'd be angry. They're all laughing and they're like oh your desk in watching it. They're open. It is something flashes and then one of the last deaths and they had a fake rat-trap with the big rat in a guy that everyone hated the most and they were all up a rolling on the floor so we you know like okay comes formation time for pt. We all walked outside in that night. Just sat there for like five minutes not saying a word just staring at all of us because we always in the same spot in the formation. No they never argued a word about it like you know if they just sit that Staring at us and then as we are going to. Pt one of the officers. I was one of the road godsey. He comes running up beside me and he said y'all think you're really fm smarter. Don't you sir. Because you know what i'm talking about he goes. Don't worry we got something planned for you guys when we came back. They had filled up drainage ditches with sandbags filled it up with muddy water and they made us all jump in so like the kids. Rav murray did a money. Water will like just died in so as we're diving in were splashing border all over. They knew they didn't get no traction soleil. Let us go to breakfast. But yeah they every day. It was something with them and we didn't have a pet frog but it was like every day was something and yet when i when i read that chapter i got a big chuckle out of it because i think my friend wade. Who every day did something in. We were walking Punishment walks at night. We have to put your trust uniform on in march around the compound in square or something. I forget what they call that. But yeah yeah. We did lots of hours of that but so Is there any thought of maybe expanding to a second book with some of the other guys that you interviewed. you know. that's a good question. I don't know steve I like. I said i had to break john. D. kinda. Write this book and so in this one doing very well mended wings is is selling well. It's one of the. By the way. I think that one of the highest compliments that i receive on this book is when the guys who flew aircraft and vietnam or read it and they'll email me or call me whatever and they and they say call in. I don't know how you did this because you aren't there. But this is the most accurate portrayal. I've ever read of flying helicopters in vietnam when i read minute wings and that is extremely high res so i i'm very pleased with the way this book came out. Where do i. Where do i go from here. I am not sure. Because i do have my first. Two books were intended as a trilogy. I need to go back and finish those and then do i come back with another genre similar to this..

"Our chapter to vet my baumgart. Who by the way. I got to meet in person three weeks ago. Down at hp. He's eighty years old and he still he go. He walked seventy eight miles a day. Sharp sharp is attack even though when he was injured. A he had brain injury You know they removed part of his exceptional low and He's historic of course is very unique because he had some odd out of body experiences During the whole thing so it it It turned out to be a really a very amazing experience for me writing the book. And i'm delighted that i was able to put this book together mended wayne's as a tribute to the guys that as i said at the beginning of the show were really kind of my heroes and and i'm glad that i was able to do this. Yeah another interesting character in. The book was As you put it broke lied. He was the only They they treated him like african american but he really wasn't. He was like latin american. The military as african-american he had a whole different I guess experience because he was dealing with other things. Besides you know being a helicopter pilot numb yeah vibe. Romero was grew up as basic basically a puerto rican from the bronx and So like you say when when he gets into the army he's basically told in some some words that That i did use in the book because he insisted. But i'm not gonna use on your podcast but they pretty much just told him it you. You're europe a black guy whether you like it or not. And so he sort of adopted that and so he became a black guy and as we relate in the book there. There weren't lot of weren't a lot of blacks in a flight program for whatever reasons at the time and so that put him in in kind of a unique situation and we talk about the things that he experienced and He's he's a very interesting character is well. I just i love him to death and All these all the black guys that that that we talk about including broke line are clyde mirror. They all served with tremendous pride for the united states. I mean they. I think their attitude was Yeah i might. I might be black. May be different. You might treat me a little bit differently. But when the chips are down by god it doesn't matter who you are who i am I'm there we're on the same team and and i. I think that that was true. By and large in the aviation units. I don't really have much experience. Outside of that. But i think they maintained their their racial cohesion a lot. More than some of the ground units Where some of the tensions got a little bit higher towards the end. That's that's my understanding again. I don't have a lot of experience with that. Yeah and In dealing with these you're interviewing them obviously many years after the fact but they all seem through their words that they're all pretty humble guys. Yes an this is an. I've been asked this before about the difference between vietnam vets and say the previous generation. And i think that that's a really interesting distinction to make. Because i know just from social settings primarily a lot of world war two vets and they rightfully are very proud of what they did They will tell you about the things. They went through You know it's maybe not a marine. Who is unworkable canal or something. But by and large these guys will will tell you about their military experiences and to this day those that are still with us are are proud about it and rightfully so and they came back from overseas with a swagger to them And i think that's all good and that's right and they may be called the greatest generation but I i like well. My phrase for the vietnam generation is forgotten generation because they came home to a totally different experience and as we mentioned in Eddie hesters chapter when he comes back from vietnam He's seen some terrible things and we won't go into those details but he's walking through. Lax and a guy walks up and spits on him. And i don't think that was a unique experience and so as a result our vietnam vets is. They are a much more humble group. And i think that for years and years and years not only did they feel like that they they. They weren't welcome to talk about their experiences. They felt like if in to anybody. But maybe their deepest darkest confidence they they would get abused for bringing up their vietnam experiences and so they i think they hit them away. They tuck them away. And it's only now that the within the art. I don't know what would you say steve. Maybe the last ten years that we finally accepted them. We're finally starting to say welcome home or finally starting to say thank you for your service and we're saying we don't blame you no matter how we felt about the war We don't blame you. You did your you did your service to your country. And that's another thing that that i wanted to accomplish. When i set out riding mended wings was this is really my My homage to to these guys to this generation pilots. It's a way for me to introduce them to people who did understand what they went through. And that was one of the things i set out to do. So that So that everybody can start to have a better appreciation of just what they went through what. They sacrificed what their families sacrificed. Because there's some of that in the book as well and So the weekend turned out to be an on bet and tell that that. welcome home. good job you know. Thank you for your service. Yeah it's funny. You mentioned that. Cause i you know when i was living up north along the local veterans council and we had the vfw american legion guys..

"Think they they feel like they can tell they can speak a certain way to you and you'll get it And so that was sort of starting point. The other thing is and this won't surprise you. Because i think we're about the same age steve but Arginine and really even more so the generation. That's a phone generation right. They they like to communicate by phone. They're not really comfortable with video. And so i would just start off with after we did the initial interviews I had. I insisted on all these guys. Send me pictures. Because there's pictures in the book and the only way i could leverage to get those pictures to say. I'm not going to start your interview. Till i get your pictures and once i got. Somebody's pictures. I put them in slot for doing an interview. And that's hard for those guys because a a lot of those guys. These pictures were were slides that they put people forget that you know those slides that you put in the projector and that's how you did a lot. And a lot of them have had sort of thrown out there vietnam stuff for their parents had or whatever so eventually i get their picture. I'd set up some phone interviews. And then i would do at least three and sometimes four phone interviews with each guy. Each interview lasted between two and three hours. So he can do the math between six and twelve hours really of interviews for each guy really got to know him and then if i could i would talk to other pilots that they knew i talked to family members. I did research I you know. I went to vietnam. Visited places goddess much than formation. As i could and then When the chapter was done in draft form. I would send it to him and say what do you think. And it was interesting. Because a lot of these men had wing vets Wouldn't backed me for four to six weeks. Sometimes and they eventually they would call and they'd say something typic- conversation would say your call and i'm sorry i didn't get back to sooner. I want you to know that The good news is you. You really nail the chapter. I think he did an excellent job and telling my story and representing who i am The bad news is when i read it. It was like ripping scab off and is taken me while to get my head around these facts. Because quite frankly i've never seen it laid out like this. And then they proceed to tell me that you know. There are some things in here. That i haven't even told my wife and So you know. I'm struggling with. Should we tell the world. And then we'd have a discussion about well. You know first of all you need to tell your wife. If i have a read the chapter i want her looped into this process but secondly would you please think about the fact that we are telling a story in. This book ended wayne's about your generation of pilots. That's really the purpose of the book. And i would like people to understand what you guys went through and i know this is painful and you but people aren't going to understand unless these stories come out so let's consider that unusually we leave it in a way how to lead those painful things then. That's that's very interesting because you know You know reading through the book. Each each person had their own story. They're all very different. I i really like the other one about the the crew chiefs premonition. I thought that was a really good chapter I didn't know where they were going with that yet. Or where you're going with that and how was going to end up. I thought that was a really interesting story. But you know it's each guy. I thought was really pretty different. But they all had that love of aviation and that's what tied all the book together. Obviously be in helicopter pilots but as we set off line. It starts off right as the wars ramping up. And then through the heavy part of the fighting in the you know probably sixty seven to sixty nine and things start to you. Know a vietnamese ation took place in the us gradually pulling out. And then you know the the final chapter is about the only guys in combat. Were a handful. Maybe special forces guys in helicopter pilots. That was it and the feeling amongst those guys was really different. Wasn't it at that point. He and i think that's one of the things you get to see through. This book is a progression of the war. And how certainly aircrews Their their roles in the war changed their attitudes changed. You know the race relations start to ramp up towards the end. They get worse And the way they fought the battles change we went from a and for for our vets out there. These terms are gonna make sense but we went from a low intensity conflict where we're really doing kind of a guerrilla war to At the end and medium intensity conflict where we're fighting conventional forces and and they've got very sophisticated weapons and ride in nineteen seventy two You know we talk about. He's a our last veteran. His michael byrne who. I figured he might. You might have a soft spot for him. Just convince his earlier special forces tour. He no he did. He did a really into our and a half million special forces before they even let them let him get into flight. School are that that was kind of a nasty trick to tell him. He had to stay on to get into flight school but anyway he was willing to do it and for him. A like all the guys in seventy sue when they're flying around if they got shot down there. There's a there's a chase huey behind you command command and control hewitt behind you but if that aircraft can't get to your your toast you're either going to get killed or captured because they're just there's no there's no friendly's there's no americans That they're going to be able to send a rescue you at that point so as a very very different war in You know it's like for the helicopter pilots. You know the in the in the past. They always those large american units nearby. Where if they went down guys are gonna come rescue them. They didn't have that warm and fuzzy feeling with the south vietnamese military which you can probably draw a lot of comparisons to what's just transpired recently in afghanistan where a lot of the military didn't have a high i guess goodwill toward goodwill but confidence in our allies. When you you know you. I could probably do a whole show on on parallels between vietnam afghanistan and that's all unfortunate but But i did want to you Talk about one point that it may have struck you when you read it but it actually struck me when i wrote it. I i set out to write mended. Wings steve. For some reason. I had in my head that all these guys are going to be of the same. Their stories would be roughly the same and i was thinking it was going to be a task to be able to distinguish and make ten different interesting chapters. I don't know why. I had that thought. Because i couldn't have been more wrong. They they do have i. I will say they all have some sort of unifying characteristics. One is they all love fast. Cars made for some reason. You know they were all driving corvettes and mustangs in and that just seems their character Most of them not all of them but most of them really didn't care for academics. They none of them were really excelled from scholarship standpoint. It wasn't because they weren't smart smart guys. Just they had other. You know they were more interested in in cars and girls and stuff like that and they just didn't do that And outside of that they are all extremely different. I mean each their personalities their experiences. We've got all the different kinds of aircraft in here and mended wings You know we got guys flying. Loach's flying cobras. Fine. qe's Doing all kinds of different jobs in the cavs or lift pilots or or that kind of thing and their injuries are all completely different as as you noticed Some of these guys were were very badly..

"A bow I dunno twenty guys. That i i would say go to my website. They'd go to the website. There was a video of me telling him about at the time. I call it the purple heart project because i didn't have a name for the book yet and i'd say fill out this application and about twenty guys filled it out and then i had some follow up interviews and you know some guys begged off when sakonnet heard what we were doing. Some guys aren't good fit. And eventually i got it down. I figured i needed. You're always thinking about of the in product and so you know i knew i knew books really legitimate. Need to come in at about sixty to ninety thousand words somewhere in that range. And so i thought well i think i can tell each guys story in about six to eight thousand words. I think i haven't tried it yet. But so that means. I need ten guys and so ended up with the ten guys that are in the book. And this just Surreptitious really steve. I'd like to say. I plan this. But i i've got an agent who represents this book and when he was going through an earlier draft. He said You know calling this has gotta be in chronological order and you can use this as a tool to tell the story of the vietnam war and so the i started rearranging the chapters. I put them in chronological order. And oh my gosh. I said it was surreptitious The first guy. They're arranged the order that they were injured. That's the way mended wings is set up and merced sky was injured as you saw in. Nineteen sixty six as the war is just starting to ramp up and the last guy is injured at the end of nineteen seventy two. When there just aren't many americans left except for aircrews. That's that's about it and so we've got the whole war cupboard and that's when we came up with the concept of. Let's put a little historical bridge between each chapter for people that aren't that familiar with the vietnam war. They can kind of get a sense for it and it just it just all kind of fell into place and then of course. We're not to give away the the surprise in the last chapter right steve. We're not gonna talk but there is there is there is a surprise in the last chapter and chapter again that was just serendipitous as wealth. The way all that sorta lined up with my visit to vietnam and one of the battlefields in getting no the families. So the whole book just sorta just came together from from my perspective. Just as as well as i could hope you know it's funny because I didn't realize until after. I had read it that it was chronological. Because you kind of take in each chapter of as its own separate story in. It wasn't until after i had finished the book. I realized that. I didn't know if you had You know envision that i guess that to put in a one step at a time but it started off in the book huxley right away. Pronoun is your first story and his story really interesting and I don't know. I don't want to give too much away. 'cause we want our listeners to buy the book but can you talk a little bit about meeting these guys and talking to them about their story especially him to start off with. Yeah and in fact. Let's let's do this Steve off a little taste of Just so that folks can get an idea of what mended wings out structured. But we start each chapter with them. And i love the way you put it. When we're off line heading towards their penultimate You know their penultimate doom. I guess and they're there. And the aircraft headed towards getting injured. And that's so our pred. Helm is in his huey a simone gunship and their escorting a bunch of lift ships and they're headed towards an insertion because there's a special forces unit that's about to get overrun and so they're sending in the grunts to save the day and As he they fly into what what. I would describe. Really as an anti aircraft ambush and their huey model Seapower huey is flies through. The kill zone comes out the other end. It is smoking badly. It's really badly shot up. And i think you and i both agree. These guys had every right to just head for the head for home at that point. But as i'm sure you've seen over and over again and the us military. They felt like they had a job to do. And that was protect on the ground and so they turn back around and they headed back towards the kill zone and as they're headed that direction the aircraft in front of them blows up in a ball of fire. And so that's where we stop and then we go back and we talk about his childhood and growing up colorado. I'm again. I'm not gonna get into a lot of details as very interesting childhood tips or typical that generation. We take him all the way through flight school. Some fun stuff. He did in korea all the way back through vietnam and then we keep working forward. After he's been and that the story of him what happens after he shot down. It truly is a phenomenal and an very surreal rescue and then how. He overcomes his injuries. He's an amazing guy. Let an amazing life. And that's where. I wanna leave each reader at the end of each chapter. Is you get to take all the way up to He's he's retired today in montana. You know you just go all the way through his whole life story but but to your original question. What was it like working with these guys. This i think a couple of points one is. I think because. I was a helicopter pilot. It gave me the ability to to talk their language. Just like i'm sure when you interview special forces guys Even if you're not in their generation. I think they they feel like they can tell they can speak a certain way to you and you'll get it And so that was sort of starting point..

Colin he's an author of former army helicopter pilot. He's the author of three books. And we're gonna be talking about his latest book which is it's titled mended wings. The vietnam war experience through the eyes of ten american purple heart helicopter pilots at folks. I'm gonna you know just preface right off the bat. This is one of those page. Turns that you can't put down. And i was speaking. Offline would calm before we started. And i told him i was very disappointed in the book that there wasn't a chapter eleven so with that said weren't welcome to the podcast contacts for taking the time with us this afternoon. We really appreciate it. Thank you steve. It's my honor to be here. I appreciate you having me. It's it's our on trust me so before we get started in a book. Tell us little our listeners. A little bit about yourself your background. And then we'll get into the book itself. Sure so. I was commissioned in the army at regular army commission and nineteen eighty-three after i graduated from college at new mexico state university in las cruces new mexico and From there they didn't have an aviation branch at the time. So i had to get a carrier branch i went to air defense artillery officer basic or some fort bliss. Then i went to flight school at What we to his mother rucker bureau a pilot fort rucker alabama and graduated in eighty four. And then i was assigned to the seventh infantry division for california i flew in the three zero seven th attack helicopter battalion where i was an arrow scout platoon leader. So i i flew a primarily. Oh fifty eight as a scout and then Towards the end of that assignment. I was assigned to a vip unit where white top hueys flying You know generals and congressman around. And then i got out. I did a a year in the guard while i was in law school but eventually graduated from law school and and went on to have a career as a patent weird before i retired in in started writing books. So that's where i am. I'm now. I'm now fulltime off. Yeah have you. You said mother rucker. I went to the warrant officer candidate course on there because that's where guys who go into the warrant branch for special forces. They sent us all down there and they put it all aviation students so You know you have a bunch of Young kids are not high school highschool to fight school guys and then they will have a special forces guys in and one or two other. Emma melissa's One guy was like a nuclear weapons tech in. Everyone was leery of him because it will undefeated brought any with him but that was. It wasn't a fun down there at fort rocker. So you know the best. The less we save about the best it is but on the bad part in at the front one of the guys i served with in special forces. He was through the nation skill While we were there he had left a couple of months ahead so he was already flying. When i got there and i got to talk to him every afternoon in alabama in. He was very excited. And i was pretty miserable during that time. So but again. It's you you know we now. That was the decision we chose so we had to live with it but yeah hats off to a helicopter pilots. That's all. I'll say but getting to the book How did you come about. You know the idea that you're gonna write this. Yeah so when. I was in flight school back in one thousand nine hundred and four. The civilian flight instructors who did most of the the primary in the basic part of the course Where all Vietnam this and so. I got to know these guys. They were you know i. I used turn their the coolest cats i'd ever met. I mean they were just absolutely unflappable very professional and we used to walk up to the flight line. And sometimes you'd see an old helicopter sitting out there and we were applying all the old Huey warbirds from vietnam and you could. You could tell that they had been damaged because they would put these little square patches over the bullet holes and refusal on his were just sprinkle with these. These little patches needs some some mornings. You'd walk out. You never knew what aircraft he'd get and some instructor would look at it and say. Oh you know six. Four seven yeah. That's that's aircraft. I flew when i was stationed outside of denying or you know whatever he was going to say and i just i at that point i started thinking. Somebody needs to write a story about these guys. They've got amazing stories to tell. I then went on to ford and all the senior warrants were all vietnam vets. All the field officers were vets. These are the guy. These are my heroes. He's the guys i'll up to up to. I'm sure steve. You had a similar experience when you first got in. You had a certain generation that we're your heroes and You know they taught me how to be the best army helicopter pilot. I could be. They taught me how to be the best officer. Army officer i could be and i just respected him and i've always wanted to do a book about them and i came up with the angle about purple hearts because a friend of mine was vietnam. Betty had a purple heart. And i thought well that's interesting angle and i really kinda had to step out genre. Do this steve. Because my other two books are completely different. They are fiction now the historical fiction but they're still fiction but i just i thought if you're going to write this book that you wanted to do ever since flight scoring. You need to just do it. Because i wanted to honor the vietnam vet helicopter pilots and i wanted to do it while they're still with us Because we're gonna start losing that that generation and i felt like now is the time to do it. It's interesting because you took the military of few years before you nineteen eighty and like you the vietnam vets. The guy who you know. I was going through special forces training. So those guys you know. We all read books about the stuff they did. We looked at them like they were on this pedestal and at that time all the senior. Nco zone officers were all vietnam vets. In you know that somebody that. I totally agreements. We all looked up to mean those guys had a ton of experience. And it's funny. You mentioned the you know the law birds at fort rucker because my friend who is in flight school is telling me the same thing he added civilian instructor said a i this baby. Back in nami. Look it's a tale because the tail had a bunch of those little square patches on on any goes young almost got shot down a few talk It's just it's an amazing story then to read the history of these guys like i said at the outset a when you open this book you immediately get hooked on it any start turning the pages and you know you kept saying man. I hope there's another chapter at the end of this one. And then i hope this chapter after that the stories on these guys were credible So you know how did you come about. I guess narrative damages ten of these guys yet. So that's a great question because you're going to write a book about Vietnam helicopter pilots. How do how you go about doing that. And there is an organization called the beat. Nam helicopter pilots association. Vhp in fact. I was out at their conference a few weeks ago. Great bunch of guys and they have a quarterly or it's actually every two month magazine that comes out it's called the aviator and so i didn't know what else to do. Just put an ad in there and just say hey did. Did you get a purple heart or flying combat vietnam that was going to be the criteria. And if so would you be interested in letting me tell your.

Are We Looking at the Wrong Jobs Numbers?
"So the first thing you have to know that unemployment number that we hear every month. That's not the whole truth there. Six unemployment numbers at the bureau of labor statistics puts out every month. You one all the way through to us. Six stands for unemployment and normally like different kinds of unemployment numbers. This is the kind of thing that is interesting to like labor. Economists like nick but right now it is crucial. So with that in mind. Darrien led us wade in to the wildly technical world of unemployment numbers the universe if you will level one you one so you. One is for people who have been unemployed for at least fifteen weeks or longer. Okay you one. This'll be like a recent college grad who has been applying to jobs actively for four months. Hasn't gotten a bite to you too. So that brings us to you to which means no waiting fifteen weeks to be counted and youtube. But you have to have lost your job or had your job end so the graduate probably wouldn't count but youtube would con somebody like an ice cream truck driver in new york. Somebody whose job goes away when the summer ends level. Free free yes you. Three is the unemployment that we all know in love. U-3 three the big cahoon app. This is the number we hear every month. This was the five point. Nine percent youth recounts she was unemployed if you are actively looking for work and are ready to start right away so this is the recent college graduate plus the ice cream woman. Nick says you three is very clean. Very simple not a lot of room for ambiguity. That's why people like it. That's why everyone looks at it. If you want to censor what the hell way market looks like you. Basically say okay of everyone who was actively looking for a job. What percent of them don't have a job at what one right now and. that's what you three. That old trust unemployment rate is trying to get at.

"Or offended me. When i just talked about the transgender. Now my you the only reason. I made that transgender joke was because when i made the joke about being gay in the closet and stuff like that nobody really cared about it. You know or so i thought but i guess they felt like transgenders and this posted this online and i liked the next day i got like a slew messages from people. I went to school with outside people. It literally started a fight. You know like four week and a half people just kept arguing all my clothes. I didn't say no because one. I don't argue with internet i. I'm at the point. I'm like i was like bro. What bathroom y'all woman to meet you at 'cause you're not gonna to sit here and try to bully me on on a pulse i said and that's the problem that i have is like people just to offended like we grew up. Grew up watching. The boondocks grew up watching family. Guys saw parts each rama. The list goes on how you why. Why is everybody so sensitive. So what so like. I've never had nobody in person. Come and say nothing to me. It's always the people online with the biggest cahoon. Us want to sit here. And try to Be tough you know. And like i said if that ever gets that point of of what's going to happen i mean that's why models always swing on somebody day. 'cause tomorrow's not promised my swing on person. I mean because what what about tomorrow. Don't y'all want to remember me for kendra was was mama didn't raise now. Kennedy was out here swinging folks. Because because you know that's what i'm saying like i wanna be somebody's hero doggone going okay but to answer your question. I haven't had nobody. Come at me crazy except on the internet because again people will people always like masterpiece. Say bad about it on the internet. But in real life they are yo- so so kendra said those are you. She dies tomorrow. She don't want nobody light the funeral she wanted to keeping a hundred the funeral. Don't don't make up all this stuff. Just say to say heidi kindred jumping into something that you said there where it kind of again. Piggy piggybacked on what you were saying. Where about i guess people coming at you about something you might have said so. Was there a time when you're performing and everything was like feeling good and you feel confident but it just wasn't it wasn't maybe moving audience where you felt like our our thought it would so you still my question. I was going to say as it. Yeah like sunol. Also what what it is. Is that all right. Let me and also. I wanted to just be clear with everybody. I've never actually gone to a comedy club to perform. Mostly perform at either my job or i will perform Kickbacks little house parties worth a group of people in a way As i've got on you know different podcasts and perform. But i think the worst type of instead of people trying to do i think that silence that dead silence is kind of like okay. What i say wrong here like. Do i clean that out. So sometimes i just pick and choose all right way right. Can i use shock. Or if i can't use this joke. And i'm actually glad for today of sounds because it teaches me how to be better you know and also okay let me just array sett- or maybe i can just use this joke for somebody else. Who really likes so with that being said i mean i hope i never get booed. I hope i never get in riding tomato brown at me. You know 'cause what i'll tell you early. I thought these hands spun case these. Hey i think. I'm going to be honest with you. The same so ghetto. But i always wanted to jump in a fight like i always wanted to push the back and run off like i don't know that. Just kinda wanna do that death on your like me on the bucket list. Climb mount everest sneaker guy in kreil you know i mean it just. I don't know kind of like let me ask. You also have y'all ever been jumped before. No i've never been john. Have you ever jumped somebody. No okay. well. I'm saying. I always just wanted just kind of throw a punch in and then just run off to say punching a day kind jumped in a fight. You know what. I was kind of warm. I never been no real fight before. Because i was always afraid that like i was gonna lose when people say kindred the best learn how to justify. You ain't gonna win every fight of personalities that they want every day out. Don't believe they're just they're guilty until proven innocent in that way. I mean it's it drew. Who said at the beginning that it was going to be interested and you delivering on that interested in right now so so okay so going back to doing the comedy portion of it like considering that you're trying to make this a career. What advice would you tell. Someone is considering one the do want to have a career communist you with somebody told you. I decided this is the road. I wanna go saw. This advice is for anybody actually really going after their dreams. Because i don't want nobody to be like what about me. What about me now. This is vice air by i. Guess what. I'm giving. Y'all something free that she didn't have to pay nine hundred ninety nine plus shipping to handle it off when those infomercials free gay all right first off behind every no there is a yes okay. You're not gonna get everybody. They're going to be some people who believes you on. They're going to be some people who will make like they will like to work. Which you guys. Actually you know. Communicate the day of hours before and that person never shows up. You know that's frustrating. Hope see was credited. Scorgeous lowered every single time. You start off at negative zero okay. They're going to be times where people want you to pay them to have you on their show. No don't you cannot pay your way into fame. I'm about to give you guys a quick breakdown of what i mean by that okay. So let's say somebody a big instagram. Influence has two hundred thousand dollars. They say we'll. I'll put your store. I'll put your post up and my story tomor all my page for one hundred dollars for a day or two. Okay you give them no one hundred dollars. So here's my next question next question. But here's the next thought about it. People don't understand that nine times out of ten with somebody sees a random pulse or an advertisement or whatever it might be they squirrel pass that so you just lost one hundred hundred dollars for what so only have five likes on your page. Now for the people out there who were life kendra. I'm not. I'm not hurting for that money. Well gonna give it to me then. I'm the one who needs all broke college. Kid all right. I i need some real money out here. I'm trump tired of going to the streets. And trying to clamp these shakes. I'm tired a rightist. Booty is worn out. I need help me get. I want to say number two. Don't prostitutes yourself man. 'cause one day i went to the store so earlier this year which is not that long ago. No it's not this year it was in november. Okay so early. Late last year went to the doctor and go. Give me a little rectal exam. Right dodgers like first time ever getting regular. i'll have nothing but accept the tongue back to stored so.
