In November 1965, roughly 450 men of the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry flew by helicopter into Vietnam's Ia Drang Valley. They were attacked by 2,000 North Vietnamese soldiers almost immediately. Three days later, one of their sister battalions was unexpectedly attacked a short distance away. The U.S. lost 237 killed. These two fights at landing zones X-Ray and Albany came on the front end of America's build up in Vietnam and were a portent of things to come. The two authors of this book were there. One, Hal Moore, commanded the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry and the other, Joe Galloway, was a war correspondent.
In an interview conducted two years before his death in 2021, war correspondent Joe Galloway talks about the pivotal event that led him to a life in journalism, covering the Kansas murder case immortalized by Truman Capote, the landmark Vietnam War battle that profoundly marked him, producing the best-selling book that was adapted into the Mel Gibson movie WE WERE SOLDIERS, and the surreal night he spent on the same battlefield 28 years later.

November 14, 1965 marked a pivotal moment in U.S. involvement in Vietnam. Elements of the Army's 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) entered the first major land battle of the war at landing zones X-Ray and Albany, which would turn out to be proving grounds for a whole new kind of warfare. Hear three personal perspectives from men who survived.
We remember an artist, a journalist and a musician, each of whom made significant contributions to their respective fields: Known for his giant hyper-realist paintings of faces, Chuck Close was one of the leading artists of his generation. After a stroke left him partially paralyzed, he was able to keep painting. Former war correspondent Joe Galloway was the only civilian to be awarded the Medal of Valor in the Vietnam War. And Charlie Watts, the drummer for the Rolling Stones, who helped define rock 'n' roll.
A Veteran's Story with Pete Mecca War correspondent Joe Galloway, the "Ernie Pyle" of Vietnam, passed away last week. His best-selling book "We Were Soldiers Once...And Young" told the story of America's first major battle in Vietnam at the I Drang Valley. I knew Joe, we emailed each other often, he was my friend. He also covered the fall of Saigon in 1975. The fall of Saigon; the fall of Afghanistan. I will be discussing Joe Galloway, the fall of Saigon, and make poignant comments concerning our pullout in Afghanistan from the point of view of a Vietnam veteran, a patriot, and like you, someone totally pissed.

Legendary journalist, Joe Galloway, joins us again on the podcast! Joe has covered just about every major conflict involving the U.S. military from the Global War on Terror all the way back to Vietnam, where he made a name for himself and was awarded the Bronze Star with “V” device for rescuing wounded soldiers under fire at Ia Drang, becoming the only civilian to receive a combat medal from the Army during the Vietnam War. More importantly, Joe has embedded himself in military conflict to ensure the stories of those who fought in those wars, along with the families who supported them at home, are heard, even after those service and family members have passed. In this episode, Joe talks about his time covering the first Gulf War, up to the GWOT and present day, as well as his new book about remembering the sacrifices of those who fought in Vietnam, who, despite a bitter welcome home, went on to achieve great success.

Welcome to the first episode of Military.com's new podcast, Left of Boom. I'm Hope Hodge Seck, managing editor for news. Every day, our reporting team is out there covering the news affecting the military community. But we felt we wanted a place to go deeper on the topics you care about, and to let you hear directly from the legends and trailblazers and changemakers who have left their mark on the military. So that's what we'll do. In this our first episode we'll talk to Joe Galloway, a war correspondent whose coverage of the Vietnam War helped shape how we remember and understand it. His book about the Battle of Ia Drang inspired the 2002 blockbuster We Were Soldiers, and he has been portrayed in film by no fewer than three A-list actors. Much more impressively, he's the only civilian to ever receive the Bronze Star for combat valor for heroism in Vietnam from the Army. Now he has a really special new book out, They Were Soldiers, about the incredible lives of various people who served in Vietnam. Be sure to visit Military.com for more of the news and information you need about the military community.
Joseph L. Galloway is the author of the 1992 bestselling book We Were Soldiers Once and Young, which was made into a hit 2002 movie starring Mel Gibson. The book was inspired, oddly, by a scene from the sequel to American Graffiti. Joe wrote We Were Soldiers with the help of Hal Moore (played by Gibson in the film), who was then a colonel. The book and movie examined the battle of Ia Drang, fought in November of 1965. It was the bloodiest battle of the war, and Joe Galloway saw it unfold. Joe has a new book out, They Were Soldiers: The Sacrifices and Contributions of Our Vietnam Veterans, which he co-wrote with Marvin J. Wolf. Joe spent many years as a reporter, who traveled the globe, including time covering the Iraq War. In 2008, We Were Soldiers was named one of the 10 best war books of all time by History.Net. Joe has also been played by not one, but two Hollywood actors. And though Joe has experience with Hollywood, as he makes clear, he'll not be working with Oliver Stone any time soon. In the intro, Colin talks about the recent unrest, which happened in many cities this last weekend, including his home town of Richmond, Virginia.
This week’s broadcast is apropos for the Memorial Day weekend when we honor the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military. Dale Throneberry will interview Joe Galloway, a civilian war correspondent. Galloway served four tours as a war correspondent in Vietnam and also covered the 1971 India-Pakistan War and half a dozen other combat operations. In Stilwel, Kansas there is a family run foundation that offers combat veterans equine therapy. War Horses for Veterans is the premier horsemanship, networking and personal growth program in the U.S. They are a Kansas City based nonprofit that brings combat veterans from across the country together in a safe and peaceful environment.
Joe Galloway earned his spurs as a award winning newspaper reporter during the Vietnam War. His New York Times best-selling book, co-written with LTG Hal Moore, USA (ret), “We Were Soldiers Once . . . and Young: Ia Drang—The Battle That Changed the War in Vietnam” is considered a classic in military history. He joined […]
Normally, this week's guest would be billed as a "Special Guest" as Joe Galloway was never actually in the military. But if history has anything to say about it, there's no doubt he's earned his stripes, going all the way back to his first overseas assignments in Vietnam. Early on, Galloway was embedded with the 1st Cavalry Division during the Battle of Ia Drang, the first major battle of the Vietnam War. He not only covered the battle, but also fought to save the lives of other American soldiers during fierce ground fighting. He was eventually awarded the Bronze Star with "V" for Valor for rescuing wounded soldiers under fire at Ia Drang, becoming the only civilian to receive a combat medal from the Army during the Vietnam War. Galloway would serve a total of four tours in Vietnam, and then cover every major American conflict up to the Global War on Terror. He's been described as "a soldier’s reporter and a soldier’s friend,” and there's no doubt that sentiment shines through in this latest episode of HAZARD GROUND!

This is an interview conducted in 2014, for the students of my friend who is a history teacher, with questions asked by the students. One of my first ever interviews. During the Vietnam War, Joe Galloway worked as a reporter for UPI, beginning in early 1965. Thirty-three years later, he was decorated with the Bronze Star for helping to rescue wounded American soldiers under fire during the battle at Landing Zone X-Ray in the Ia Drang Valley. He is known for co-authoring "We Were Soldiers Once....and Young" with Col. Hal Moore. Immortalised in film by Mel Gibson, with Barry Pepper playing Joe. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
