The Archive Hour: Lance Corporal Baronowski'sVietnam

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Another chance to hear this Sony Award-winning documentary. Lance Corporal Mike Baronowski was killed in action on 29 November 1966 in Vietnam. He left behind an extraordinary legacy of recordings, which he had sent home to family and friends. They contain vivid and often comic reflections on his battlefield environment and experiences. The story of his life and death is told through the tapes, which were left to collect dust on top of a cupboard for 30-odd years, and from the differing perspectives of two US Marine comrades and Baronowski's brother and sister.
