On May 24, 1973, President and First Lady Nixon hosted American Prisoners of War held captive in Vietnam for the largest dinner ever held at the White House.
40 years later, the Richard Nixon Foundation hosted what was perhaps their last reunion gathering. The following is a collection of television and print news coverage.
TOPICS: Chit/Chat; History; Military/Veterans
KEYWORDS: nixonfoundation; pow; presidentnixon; richardmnixon; vietnam; whdinnerreunion
Unable to remember the news coverage at the time. Do any remember a smidgen of coverage?
The comment from the men who had no Hymn books and wrote their own Hymn, music and words, while incarcerated and tortured brings to light they never lost faith.

Nixon didn’t have too many friends back then. This group appreciated him.

Can understand your reason.
God bless the families of these men. They deserve much more respect than they have seen.
