I was honoured to be joined by Peter Mathews, Peter is originally from The Hague in The Netherlands, but found himself taking part in America's War in Vietnam. He was awarded the Bronze Star after saving a critically wounded soldier.
Peter spent a year in country with the 1st Cavalry Division and towards the end of his tour found a diary belonging to a Vietnamese Soldier on Hill 724 after the battle of Dak To, the diary remained in Peter's possession until the 2020's when it was finally reunited with the fallen soldiers remaining relatives.
