Welcome To Doc Upton's
Vietnam Veterans Radio Network
CH-46 Sea Knight
VVRN is the Arts, Education and Service Project of Vietnam Veterans Against the War - Firebase Kansas City, and is transmitted from our Comm Bunker (small studio) in Liberated Territory (basement) behind the lines of Hypocrisy and Revisionism (Heart of America). Your host for this unique blend of historical reference, personal experience, and Rock & Roll!: Decorated Vietnam Combat Veteran John 'Doc' Upton, RN, who served as a Navy Corpsman with 1st Recon Bn, 1st Mar Div ('69-'70).
VVRN's weekly, half-hour transmissions are currently transmitted by, and provided free of charge to, Community, University, and other non-commercial FM radio stations in the US, Canada and Belgium...and world-wide via shortwave from Radio For Peace International (RFPI) in Costa Rica. Joe Bernard, RFPI's Program Director, has described VVRN as, "forthright in its criticism of US involvement in the Vietnam War and those that followed. Its provocative message is interspersed with music of the era, giving life and memory to the words...a program unique and sometimes shocking in nature."
