Title

Tim Delsman and Bob Vanderzanden oral history recording

Description

An audio recording of an oral history of Tom Delsman and Bob VanderZanden on the Vietnam era. Delsman was a student at Oregon State in 1966-1967 and was a member of the ROTC. He enlisted in 1967 and was sent to Vietnam in 1968. Delsman notes that Oregon State was pretty conservative and the University of Oregon was very liberal. Delsman and VanderZanden say that Hillsboro was fairly conservative and supported the government and people fighting in the war, though attitudes started to change between 1969 and 1970 and people wanted out of the war. They also mention the start of drug culture. There is a transcript of this interview.
