Episode 1 — Christmas Odyssey in Vietnam

  • Resumen

  • Welcome to the inaugural episode of Memoirs Pasifika, a podcast exploring events, movements, and people in modern Micronesian history.

    In this episode, Dr. Michael Lujan Bevacqua tells the story of Governor Carlos Camacho’s eventful trip to Vietnam — at the height of the war — to visit Guam's battle-weary troops during Christmas.

    The trip unexpectedly helped shape Guam’s political history, launched a practice among politicians nationwide that continues up until today, and even inspired a hit song!

    Dr. Bevacqua is an historian and teacher of Chamoru, the indigenous language of Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands.
