Born in Chicago and raised in St. Louis, John Stillman was a quiet boy yet found fun in teasing his younger sisters and brother. His love for the Rome plows in Vietnam led him to a career as an operating engineer, where he earned a living running the big equipment on job sites. Now retired, he busies himself helping out with nonprofit veteran’s organizations and tending to the almost one hundred acres he calls home in Missouri. John has been happily married to his wife Rita for fifty- three years and is the father of four children, two daughters and two sons. He still loves his road trips
Unearthing fifty years of repressed memories with stunning accuracy and raw details, John also wrote a book. It is titled, Jumping from Helicopters, and is a vivid and moving Vietnam memoir that will open your eyes to the realities of what our brave young men witnessed and endured, and why they returned facing a lifetime of often unspoken unrest, persistent nightmares, and forced
normalcy.
This is a very special episode with an incredible man and Warrior. Hearing these stories is often rare or told second-hand, so don't miss this episode!
