Memorial Day on BlogTalkRadio

Whether you are having a hot dog or enjoying the weather today, Memorial Day is a time to appreciate and remember all that our citizens dedicate and sacrifice for our country.

Our BlogTalkRadio community boasts several shows that highlight the issues and importance of serving our country, such as America Supports You, Navy Homefront Talk, and Army Wives Talk Radio and SpouseBuzz to name a few.

Just last week The Smithsonian Channel aired a show to discuss their new documentary, Remembering Vietnam: The Wall at 25.

In honor of Memorial Day, our editorial team has selected a few shows to feature on the homepage that relate to the important issues we should focus on today.

Please take a moment and enjoy our programming.

Smithsonian Channel Remembers Vietnam with Jan Scruggs

VietnamFounder and President of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund, and Founder of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Jan Scruggs, will join the Smithsonian Channel’s David Royle on BlogTalkRadio to discuss Memorial Day and the Smithsonian Channel documentary ‘Remembering Vietnam: The Wall at 25′ tonight at 6pm ET (click to listen).

SMITH_PMS_VERT_BLACK_sizesThe Smithsonian Channel and Showtime will celebrate the heroism of the men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces this Memorial Day by airing two award-winning documentaries from the Smithsonian Channel, including REMEMBERING VIETNAM: THE WALL AT 25.

Today on BlogTalkRadio get a preview of the documentary, which goes back in time to tell the story of the memorial through the eyes of those who conceived it, those who were instrumental in pushing it through bureaucratic and political resistance, those intimately involved with its 25-year history, and those it honors. Above all, the documentary tells the story of a place that is more than a memorial – - it is a place where old wounds are healed.

The documentary will air on the Smithsonian Channel as part of a special weekend of programming on Smithsonian Channel throughout Memorial Day Weekend, May 23-26.
