Shared Weight: The Gilchrest Brothers

July 23, 2014 – Segment 3

We listen in to a special broadcast of another episode of our documentary about the Vietnam War, Shared Weight. In this episode, The Gilchrest Brothers, you will hear the heart-rendering story of the Gilchrest brothers: former Republican Congressman Wayne Gilchrest, his brothers Jeffrey and Alan who served with him in Vietnam, their brother Richard who served in the Navy, and Clifford, who remained home to teach. We join the brothers as they reflect on how their world views and personal lives were affected by that conflict.
