The School Poisoning Tragedy in Caledonia, Ohio    ABOUT THIS EPISODE On episode 44 of Veteran Voices: The Oral History Podcast, we talk with James Van Keuren about his book, The School Poisoning Tragedy in Caledonia, Ohio, and the tragic but little known story of what a small community in Ohio went through in the years and decades after WWII. We’ve always understood the veteran experience in broadest terms that include the full range of issues veterans, their families, and our communities go through before, during, and after military service. Some of these issues are well known, such as post traumatic disorders or military-related illnesses known as Agent Orange, Gulf War Syndrome, or the most recent toxic burn pit exposures. Also fitting into these experiences are the social, political, and economic consequences communities endure as a result of exposures to dangerous military-industrial activities abroad and at home. Dr. James Van Keuren’s book tells the tragic but little known story of what a small community in Ohio went through in the years and decades after WWII: “In the early 1960s, the River Valley Local School District built its middle school, its high school and its athletic fields in the former Marion Engineer Depot. During World War II, the depot had used the land for heavy equipment rehab, military artillery practice, materials storage, burial of construction debris and burning of waste materials and fuels. “In 1997, a River Valley High School nurse grew concerned about the high rate of leukemia and other cancers in graduates. Then a stunning news report announcing a 122 percent increase in death rates over thirty years in the Marion area sparked an investigation. “Was the land to blame? The question of what may have been known about the contaminates on the school grounds sent shock waves through the community that still linger today.” Meanwhile, be sure to check out another conversation with Dr. Van Keuren discussing WWII POW camps in Ohio on episode 43 of Veteran Voices: The Oral History Podcast. Dr. James Van Keuren is a retired professor of educational administration and dean of the Dwight Schar College of Education at Ashland University, as well as a former high school teacher, principal and superintendent. He has published numerous peer-reviewed articles, and his most recent book, A Tribute to the 109th Evacuation Hospital (SM), traces his father-in-law’s service during World War II. Van Keuren has been married to his wife, Pat, for forty-nine years, and they have two daughters, Michelle (Drew) Scott and Christie (Dale) Murdoch, in addition to grandchildren Hailey Scott, Weston Murdoch and Cooper Murdoch.

Indigenous Perspectives on Native Americans and Local History David Holoweiko | Mark Grago | Michael Kishbucher | Tony Lavorgne     On episode 18 of the Beaver County History Podcast, we talk with public historians David Holoweiko, Mark Grago, Michael Kishbucher, and Tony Lavorgne about the complicated cultures and histories of Native Americans in Beaver County, Pennsylvania. According to the latest census data, .2% of Beaver Countians self identify as "American Indian" -- a governmental label defined as persons having origins in any of the original peoples of North and South America (including Central America). Prior to the arrival of Europeans in the 17th century--and dating back to at least 10,000 years ago according to archeologists, the population of the region was 100% indigenous.  How did we get from there to here, then and now? These four local public historians share their perspectives on the social, political, and economic histories of the rich and varied cultures of indigenous peoples of the region, which includes the Ohio River Valley, Western Pennsylvania, and what was once known as the Northwest Territories.   Guests David Holoweik Dave is a long-time local historian, performing artist, and producer with The Social Voice Project. He sits on the board of directors of the Little Beaver Historical Society, located in Darlington, Beaver County. Dave is also the host of the Little Beaver Historical Society Podcast.     Mark Grago Mark is from Aliquippa. He’s an author, poet, video blogger, and the creator of Beaver County Indians--a website dedicated to indigenous peoples of Beaver County and the Ohio Valley Region.     Michael Kishbucher Mike is a Darlington native. His latest book, Legends & Lore of Little Beaver Creek, is an entertaining but factual investigation into the origins and history of a variety of local tales including the legends of Esther Hale, White Lady of Sprucevale, Gretchen's Lock, The Pig Lady of Cannelton, and Indian Rock.     Tony Lavorgne Tony specializes in obscure paranormal and anthropological topics. He is an accomplished researcher, author, and public speaker on the subject of local legends and lore throughout Western Pennsylvania, Northern West Virginia, and Eastern Ohio.  His latest book is Eastern Woodland Indians: Lives Legends and Lore. Tony is also the host of Tony Lavorgne's Legends & Lore Podcast.   Indigenous Voices More Episodes This episode was recorded September 2020. Host: Kevin Farkas.

Paul Hanna There Was Nothing There In this episode of the podcast, WWII Army veteran Paul Hanna of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania talks about visiting Hiroshima shortly after the atomic bomb destroyed the city in 1945.     Paul Hanna is among the very few Americans to have personally witnessed the atomic aftermath at both Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan.  Like many WW II veterans, Paul has little doubt that the bombing was justified.  For him, it was necessary . . . or else.  Had the invasion of Japan proceeded as planned, it is estimated that hundreds of thousands of people on both sides would have died.  In the late fall of 1945, Corporal Hanna was in the breach of this impending attack on Japan, prepared to follow orders. Paul Hanna grew up in West Newton, a small town fed by the Youghiogheny River some twenty-five miles southeast of Pittsburgh. The Hanna family was large and close.  Patriotic.  The Hanna’s contribution to the war effort was unselfish; four sons served simultaneously.  Moe the oldest flew with the Army Air Corps as a navigator in North Africa; he eventually fulfilled his mission quota and returned home early in the war.  Pete became a career naval officer, getting his start as a cadet at Carnegie Tech.  Paul was drafted into the Army, as was younger brother David who saw extensive combat in both Germany and France.  The youngest brother Donald would serve in the Army during the Korean War.  In answer to their parents’ prayers, all of the Hanna brothers returned home to West Newton—one by one and unharmed. Paul speaks matter-of-factly about of his military service, as do a surprising number of WW II veterans.  He calls himself one of the “unattached and unassigned” members of the Army.  It was as if the Army needed him (he was drafted in 1943), but then couldn’t decide how.  After induction he was sent to a half dozen different training bases to learn how to do a half dozen different jobs.  As much a lowly corporal as anyone, he was even briefly put in charge of more seasoned, senior, but segregated “colored” troops during one of his stays in the Deep South.  Back then, rank and race had its privileges. Eventually the Army found a useful assignment for Paul and it shipped him across the Pacific to be part of a diversionary force that would attack Japan’s backside.  He was to land on the main island and fight long and hard enough until US forces could make their main assault. Like many GIs hurriedly sent to the Pacific in preparation for the invasion, Paul witnessed one of the largest military assemblages of manpower and machines the world has ever seen.  At the island of Ulithi, he says, “There were so many ships you couldn’t count them.  Thousands of them.” After the atomic bombs were dropped and Japan surrendered, Paul finally made a landing onto Japanese soil in October 1945.  He went ashore at Kure, about twenty miles from Hiroshima.  There was nothing there.  The city was just like you see it in pictures he says.  The Army also told him that it was safe, as long as he didn’t stay too long in the city or pick up anything as a souvenir.  Paul wasn’t about to.  Not there or in Nagasaki, which he also visited. After only a few months in Japan, Paul was sent home.  Without much fanfare, he was quietly discharged in February 1946.  After arriving by train at Pennsylvania Station, Paul promptly got into his father’s waiting car and that was it.  The war was over.  Going to war was a necessary thing to do, but after it ended it was time to get on with their lives, Paul contends in that same matter-of-fact tone. Like many of his fellow veterans, Paul used the GI Bill after the war.  He obtained a college degree in 1949 from Carnegie Tech—known today as Carnegie Mellon University—and went on to have a very successful thirty-three year career as an engineer. Paul Hanna died in November 2011, five months after this interview with The Social Voice Project.

That's Loss WWII Voices from Lighthouse Pointe On this episode of Argot: Audio Short Stories from the Veteran Voices of Pittsburgh Oral History Collection, we hear the voices of six WWII veterans from Lighthouse Pointe independent living community in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania--all of whom are no longer with us to share their stories and experiences.     This sample from the oral history collection of WWII stories features the voices of (in order of appearance) Robert Riethmiller (US Army), Charles Kelley (US Army Air Corps), Paul Hanna (US Army), Jack Rominger (US Marines), William Fisher (US Navy), Francis Burket (US Marines). The Lighthouse Pointe series captures the first-and historical experiences of WW II veterans.  In addition to talking about their war-time service, these veterans also share stories about the homefront and what it was like living in Pittsburgh during the war years, their thoughts about WW II, President Truman and the atomic, patriotism, and today’s youth. In June 2011, The Social Voice Project conducted a series of audio interviews with veterans living at the Lighthouse Pointe independent living community in O’Hara Township, Allegheny County.  Resident Emily Drake, herself a WW II veteran (WAC), was the originator of the project, and she assisted with the production of the interviews by scheduling the recording sessions.     __________________________________________ This episode was produced July 25, 2019.  It is based on the oral history interviews with Robert Riethmiller, Charles Kelley, Paul Hanna, Jack Rominger, William Fisher, and Francis Burket recorded June 2011 at Lighthouse Pointe, O'Hare Township, Pennsylvania.  Audiography: Kevin Farkas.

In the House Where I Was Born   ABOUT THIS EPISODE On episode 7 of the TSVP Radio Theater Podcast, we present a faithful reproduction of the original broadcast of In the House.  Through the impressionistic narration of an “unknown soldier”—a representational every man—this radio drama pays homage to the common soldier and all who have died in military service. The show has been described as “a montage of memories—childhood homes, friends, family, war, death—that link the present with the past, the living with the dead, and form the cultural ties that bind communities together.”  Others have said that the play “conquers time and space with an ease and flair.” Written and directed by WWI veteran Wyllis Cooper for ABC Radio, the original 30-minute broadcast aired live on Memorial Day 1949.  Our current production is a sound-stage adaptation that closely follows the original story and sound design.  An added scene updates the story to include the Korean and Vietnam Wars, with special reference to Pittsburgh and actual lines from our oral history archive. This episode was recorded April 7, 2015 in the Cathedral of Learning, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  Produced by Kevin Farkas, directed by Dennis Schebetta, musical Score adaptation by Pat Blackburn, script adaptation & audiography by Kevin Farkas.  Cast: Dylan Myers (Unknown Soldier), Nancy Bach (Mother), Elias Vila-Kubiak (Boy), Claire Sabatine (Bride), Ken Bolden (Brother/Father), Jay Londino (Announcer).  Special thanks to the University of Pittsburgh Theatre Arts Department.  Music available on Youtube and SoundCloud: Stephen Griffith (I Ride an Old Paint, Streets of Laredo), Meikel Krieger (Fender Strat with Suhr FL Pickups).  Recording and performance editing by The Social Voice Project.  ©TSVP Radio Theater Podcast/The Social Voice Project, Inc.  All rights reserved.

R-ACT Live! | 2014 Annual Holiday Radio Show - Three Wise Men & A Child Is Born   ABOUT THIS EPISODE On episode 6 of the TSVP RAdio Theater Podcast, we present R-ACT’s 2014 Annual Holiday Radio Show, Three Men & A Child Is Born, performed live at the Merrick Art Gallery in New Brighton, Pennsylvania. Cast and crew: Shantih Bianco, Eric McAnallen, Suzanne Weber, Conrad Bianco, Nick Ellefson, Steve Walsh, Leanne Condron (director), Mark Greg Murdoch, Janet Lynn Hutchinson, Tom Boyce, Valerie Ann, Bill Bruce, Rosanne Castronovo Robinson (host). Live sound, recording, and performance editing by The Social Voice Project. THREE MEN Narrator/Announcer: Steve Walsh; Ballantine (Australian Soldier): Conrad Bianco; Gascoigne (French Soldier): Eric McAnallen; Melvin (American Soldier): Mark Murdoch; Stationmaster: Tom Boyce; Shepherd: Steve Walsh Physician: Nick Ellefson Three Men (a.k.a., Uninhabited or Christmas Story 1918), by Wyllis Cooper. Originally aired 1935. A tale about a Christmas from the last war. That means World War 1. A train comes to a halt at a railroad station in France. Both Austrailian and French soldiers go on leave for the holidays. They compare notes on the similarities of each other’s armies, and the common experiences they have faced. They are joined by a American troop who is black. The three diverse troops enjoy moments of solidarity and marvel at the far reaches they had come from to be in this place together. In the post war days, the three carry souvenirs in their packs, and marvel at the stars. They turn in and dream as the train rushes through the night. Their deja vu at meeting before is explained as we peek into their dream of three other travellers who were bearing gifts, and following the star. A dramatization of the legend of the three wisemen ensues. Legend, because little is known about the wise men from scripture, and nearly all of the tale here is from tradition that surrounds their part in the Christmas story. As the wise men find the Christ child, the three soldiers awaken and compare notes about the dream they all seemed to have had. A CHILD IS BORN Narrator/Announcer: Rosanne Robinson; Innkeeper: Tom Boyce; Innkeeper’s Wife: Shantih Bianco; Sarah: Valerie Boyce; Leah: Janet Hutchinson; Soldier: Nick Ellefson; Prefect: Mark Murdoch; Joseph: Steve Walsh; Shepherd: Nick Ellefson; Dismas: Eric McAnallen; King: Eric McAnallen A Child is Born, by Stephen Vincent Benet. Originally aired 1942. A poetic Christmas drama in one act as part of the anthology radio program Cavalcade of America. Starred Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne, later on television with Gene Lockhart and Fay Bainter.
