Vietnam Through The Lens: The James “Skip” Liberty Story
June 18 at 6:00 PM
The War Memorial
32 Lake Shore Drive, Grosse Pointe Farms, MI
James “Skip” Liberty voluntarily joined the Army in 1968 during the Vietnam War, carrying a home video camera given by his uncle to document his experience. What began as a simple request turned into an extraordinary firsthand account, capturing everything from basic training to life in Vietnam’s camps and battlefields. Decades later, a chance encounter with filmmaker Tommy Dilger brought this forgotten footage to light, leading to the creation of a powerful feature film. This event is part of The War Memorial’s Vietnam War Commemoration Celebration.
