Charlie Wilson’s World War

You may have heard of the movie staring Tom Hanks….. ” Charlie WIlson’s War”. The movie was based on a true story… of a Texas Congressman involved in the largest covert operation in history.

Well this story is not based on a true story… it is the story as Charlie Wilson lived it. Our Charlie Wilson was a southern boy who grew up during hard times… and was estranged from his parents. He joined the United States Navy before finishing High School, and served aboard the USS Louisville.

Aboard ship he lost many friends due to Kamikaze attacks….. and is alive today because of one fateful decision. He shares a story that is very powerful and moving. Charlie did not serve in the largest covert operation in history….. no but he did serve in the largest war in history.

He is very serious during his interview, but Charlie is a very friendly man who often comes to our events. He has a great sense of humor, and it our honor to share his story with you. He has resided in Michigan since 1946.
