11:05 - 11:22 (17 mins)VIC 4 VETS KICKOFF OF VETERANS APPRECIATION MONTH
Jim Mayer and Pete Nardie

I nominate Pete Nardie for consideration to be interviewed in a Vic 4 Vets segment on NewsTalk STL.  I’ve known Pete since 1971.  Pete is not only a good friend but he represents everything good in terms of American citizenship, military combat service and a 32 year career as a teacher.

Pete voluntarily served in the US Marine Corps.  He completed a 13 month combat tour in the Vietnam War.  Pete served in the highly innovative Combined Action Program.  The program placed a Marine Platoon and a Navy Corpsman to live on their own in a Vietnamese rural village.  That program called for an incredible individual commitment to serve in a concept not well known to the American public.  During the day they provided much needed assistance to the local residents and by night performed ambush patrols or defensive positions keeping the residents safe.

Southeast Missouri State known University (SEMO) presents Pete’s answers to questions about his undergraduate experience and how SEMO effected his life.  

One of my favorite stories about Pete at SEMO was on close to his first day in school -he had already grown his hair and beard quite long after he was honorably discharged from the Marines.  A school cafeteria employee took note of Pete’s appearance and asked for his student ID.  She kept Pete’s ID and said he’d only get it back by meeting with the University President.  Pete had that meeting and ended it with a great quote.  Pete’s ensuing college career later enabled him to be elected as SEMO Student Government President.
