THURSDAY-FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13-14, 2014

After Vietnam War, No One Believed Authorities, Principal Recalls 9 SOLDIERS/From B1 ing in Unadilla, has started a fund drive to set up a granite monument among the cluster of monuments at the end of Veterans Memorial Walkway in Neahwa Park.

The marker will memorialize nine of his schoolmates who died in that conflict.

Fought on the other side of the globe, it changed our society in ways still felt today.

“People, until the Vietnam War – one of the watershed events of my life – took the government’s statements at face value,” said Pirone, interviewed in the book-lined study of his Otsego Street home. “I credit the Vietnam War with bringing down all the old symbols of authority. It happened in schools.”

At first, people, young and old, accepted the assessment of the nation’s leaders that Vietnam was necessary to “contain” international Communism. “As the war went on and the death toll mounted, attitudes began to crystallize and harden,” he said.

As did in thousands of towns, big and small, across the U.S., that struggle – be-

tween the old verities and the new conflicting reality – played out in the halls of OHS, which in 1964 had moved from the old high school on Academy Street, across from the Armory, to a low-slung modern building on 150 acres at the edge of the city.

To address the new ferment, OHS’ then-principal Charles Belden – Mr. Belden, Pirone calls him, “a very private man in a very public job” – began convening Library Assemblies in 1969, the school’s 100th anniversary. The forums sought to air the pros and cons of the conflict. Antiwar exponents were easy to find; few pro-war voices were willing to speak, although Tom Conway, a career officer who had fought in World War II and Korea, and joined OHS’ teaching staff after retiring, took on the challenge.

By then, the Vietnam War had become personal to many, beginning with Robert M. Dwyer, an OHS student whose family had moved to Troy before his graduation. He had joined the Marines and, on May

23, 1967, he stepped on a land mine in Quang Nam, South Vietnam, and was killed. He was to be the first of the nine OHS students sacrificed to the war.

Bud Pirone knew them; back then, OHS was bigger, 850 students, but still small enough that teachers could know all the students.

Art Elmandorf, “a very nice young man” whose family had lived on Hunt Street, around the corner from Otsego Street, in a small community of black residents, moved to New York City before he could complete OHS. Art delivered the Binghamton Press, then Oneonta’s evening paper, and the two would exchange pleasantries when the newsboy made his daily rounds.

He coached Bill Jones at tennis. Jones, a Marine, died in an accident in Quang Tri on Feb. 25, 1969, the sixth OHS students killed there. Rich Kohland’s sister was in Pirone’s history class. Also a Marine, he died on Nov. 10, 1967, in Quang Nam, the first OHS graduate to die in the war.

“There are people who remember all of them,” said

Pirone, “sadly and fondly.”

Pirone, born in Oneonta in 1939, was a baby during WWII. For him, Vietnam was the major transitional event of his life. His biggest concern in high school: “Would we beat Norwich at football?” In 1955, they did, for the first time in years.

Now, the 1960s generation was in an uproar. For the first time, the drug culture was born, a scourge still with us today.

Pirone attended Syracuse University – freshman year, the Hungarian Revolution was the big issue. Graduating, he began teaching at Sidney and was settling in when, in the early 1960s, OHS history teacher George Waddington, his mentor, approached him at the Wilber Park tennis courts. He’d accepted a teaching job at Bugbee School, operated

by SUNY Oneonta: Would Pirone like to succeed him?

Waddington walked the younger man over to a nearby car. Principal Belden was behind the steering wheel. Within five seconds, he’d offered Pirone the job, and he accepted.

Mr. Belden retired in 1972, succeeded by the equally estimable Lloyd Baker, who retired in 1979. His successor served two years and Pirone, who had been summer school principal, was suddenly called to replace the new man in August

1981.

When he accepted the job, Mr. Belden came by to congratulate him. Post Vietnam, “you’ll have more difficulties than I had,” the elderly gent predicted. “If I said no, nobody asked why.”

For 14th Year, Schenevus Pupils Host Veterans PUPILS/From B1 attended the 14th annual breakfast Monday, Nov. 10.

“This school has a longstanding history of hosting veterans for this breakfast,” said Jake Palmateer, ONC BOCES public relations specialist.

The 12th grade government class started the breakfast in 2000, but this year, the 50th anniversary of the U.S. escalation in Vietnam War, fourth-grade teachers Shannon Weir and Kathleen Walke wanted their pupils to deepen their understanding of soldiers’ sacrifice.

“We talked about why we appreciate them and why we have tomorrow off,” said Weir. “They fought so that we could have the rights to the education they’re receiving.”

The fourth graders helped serve breakfast, sat with the veterans and put pins in the “Where Have You Been?” map to show where veterans were stationed around the world.

In addition, 420 students from pre-K to fourth grade replicated the Vietnam Memorial in the cafeteria, but instead of names of the deceased, they decorated the walls with pictures, poems and letters of thanks the veterans for their service.

“We’re not in D.C. to see The Wall, so we created our own,” said Weir. “We want them to have that personal connection.”

The a cappella choir performed the National Anthem, and the high school band entertained diners with Duke Ellington’s “Satin Doll” and “The Patriotic Spectacle.” And before the speakers began, the entire fourth grade lined up to read Cheryl Dyson’s poem, “Veteran’s Day.” First Sgt. George Ost, a National Guardsman who served in Iraq, was the guest speaker, with his daughter, senior Danielle Ost, reading a poem to introduce him.

“When I think of veterans, I think of Vietnam vets,” he said. “We appreciate our vets today, but we also need to think about our past.”

In addition, the Iroquois chapter of the DAR presented each veteran with a star cut from retired American flags, part of the national Stars For Our Troops program. “I met a woman who had worn hers in her helmet when she fought in

Iraq,” said Roxanne Murray.

“It inspired us to start giving them out last year.”

Since then, over 200 have been given to soldiers in Otsego County, and many have been sent to troops overseas.

“Seeing these soldiers shows them what it takes to be a good citizen,” said Weir. “It’s about being respectful, responsible and making sacrifices.”

“Our kids look up to you,” said Supt. of Schools Thomas Jennings told the vets. “And you’re the best example they have.”
