  • The “Veterans Stories” series features Metro Area Vietnam Veterans sharing their personal experiences from the Vietnam War. The nine veterans who shared their experiences are: Lee Blackmon, Decker A. Decker, Jack McCormack, John McInerney, Guy Palumbo, Steve Tagg, Joseph Giannini, Michael Sulsona and Michael Mullarkey.
    A very special and poignant portrayal of soldiers serving their country who upon returning from a job well done never heard: “Welcome Home”.

    I'm a fan of The Wonder years and I had no idea he was a Captain in the US Marine Corps. Such an impressive individual.

    Still remember that episode when Lewis said to him: "You keep thinking the way you do Mr Arnold and these two (Kevin and Wayne) will be next, and I just hope that's what they want"

    This man (Dan Lauria) was a huge part of my growing up. Always reminded me of my dad. I owe him tons for that. I owe him tons more for his service. Warms my heart whenever I see him.

    I knew Dan Lauria from The Wonder Years. Only his character was a Korean War veteran. I never would have known Dan was a real veteran but a Vietnam vet.

    I always thought Mr. Lauria never acted in TWY, he was just being himself, an honest, hard working man. Great interview.

    Dan, I loved hearing your opinions and sage advice regarding the military. The last time I saw you was at Camp Hanson. I was also at the Basic School with you. You were a leader at the Basic School and I remember you fondly. We are both from Ct. Semper fi, buddy. -Craig Miller

    I think his idea about taking kids who are obsessed with these war video games to a VA hospital is an excellent idea. I remember when I was young and used to watch old war movies and GI Joe and everything else and thought war was fun and cool.....until my mom made me watch Born on the Fourth of July. Boy, that sure changed my whole perspective.

    Dan Lauria as Jack Arnold always reminded me of my father. Now, I see it's because he is a Vietnam Veteran like My Father. The way he speaks and carries himself is just like my Father. I miss My Dad... Hearing Dan speak is comforting.

    When you talked about your marine buddies are still connected, you couldn’t of said it better. Us marines always have that brotherhood. Plus you are right. When you get out they send you through taps. But it does not get you ready for what you will face on the outside. Semper fi sir

    I had no idea until i saw a wonder years reunion thing that dan was/is a marine
    He expressed his appreciation for and added that he had contributed a bit to the episodes that dealt with veteran issues and war conversations
    My love and respect for him has gone up so much higher
    In under six minutes he makes some AMAZINGLY POWERFUL POINTS regarding our veterrans , our politicians , war , and glorifying and romanticizing killing other humans
    WOW
    THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS

    AMAZING point about that period after WW2 where they spent more time with each other and were able to detach together. Maybe a 2 month restation in a Germany or Japan while still in the military environment but not combat? Especially if they’re surrounded by the same guys they just served with.

    Lauria is spot on about the military. Men in comfy leather chairs, sipping cognac, smoking cigars and sending young people to faraway places to die for mercenary or political causes is a truism. The horrible treatment of Vietnam vets was a knee-jerk reaction by a public unaware of the manipulations of their government.
