Dean Golliher, formerly of Murphysboro and now living in Anna Illinois, served in the U-S Army and was stationed in Vietnam from September of 1967 to September 1968. As a Specialist Four attached to the 507th Transportation Brigade, his job was to document and coordinate cargo flights into Tan Son Nhut Airbase, the huge air base near Saigon in far southern Vietnam.
In his living room in Anna, Illinois, along with his wife Janet, Dean talks to WSIU'S Kevin Boucher about what it was like during the Tet Offensive, in late January of 1968.
