Maj. Gen. Thomas W. Geary to Speak at<br />
Norwich University Veterans Day Observance<br />
Norwich University will observe Veterans<br />
Day by conducting a Corps of Cadets review<br />
in honor of all veterans, past and present. <strong>The</strong><br />
reviewing officer and guest speaker is Major<br />
General Thomas W. Geary, U.S. Air Force,<br />
Norwich Class of 1988.<br />
Veterans, the public, and those currently<br />
serving in the Armed Forces of the United<br />
States are cordially invited to attend the<br />
Veterans Day Observance on the Upper<br />
Parade Ground at Norwich University on<br />

<strong>The</strong> ceremony will include cannon fire in<br />
the Roll of Wars, a wreath laying, firing of<br />
three rifle volleys, and the playing of Echo<br />
Taps.<br />
Major General Geary’s remarks will touch<br />
upon the themes of veterans who have served<br />
in peacetime and war, including their unwavering<br />
courage and commitment to the nation.<br />
He will also address challenges facing our<br />
veterans, including health issues, homelessness<br />
and combat trauma, such as PTSD. And,<br />
he will recall the history of Veterans Day, as<br />
20<strong>18</strong> marks the Centennial of the Armistice<br />
ending <strong>World</strong> War I.<br />
Just prior to the ceremony, Norwich<br />
University faculty members will hold free and<br />
open to the public the Norwich Panel on<br />
Armistice Day Centennial from 1 – 2:30 p.m.<br />
in Mack Hall Auditorium. As the world gathers<br />

its conclusion, and the legacy it left behind.<br />
Panelists include: Rowly Brucken, Professor<br />

analysis and operations. Geary serves as the<br />
Director’s principal advisor on all Human<br />

Veterans to Share Powerful Stories of Military<br />
Service with Community on Nov. 10<br />
Nine veterans and their family members<br />
will share stories of military service with the<br />
community during a compelling full-length<br />
theater work, <strong>The</strong> Telling Project, at Chandler<br />
Center for the Arts on Veterans Day weekend,<br />
Saturday evening, November 10.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Telling Project - a national non-profit<br />
organization based in Austin, Texas – works<br />
to deepen understanding and connection<br />
between American veterans, military families,<br />
and their civilian communities through<br />
live stage productions in which veterans and<br />
their family members theatrically recount<br />
their own unique experiences of service. <strong>The</strong><br />
upcoming Chandler production of <strong>The</strong> Telling<br />
Project is one of more than 60 such productions<br />
offered in communities large and small<br />
nationwide since 2008.<br />
“<strong>The</strong>se Telling Project productions are<br />
effectively breaking down stereotypes and<br />
creating necessary conversations at a community<br />
level concerning concepts of war, the<br />
military, service, citizenship, and community,”<br />
says Chandler Executive Director Tom<br />
Ayres. “In a time of such pervasive, bitter<br />
division in our country, it is more important<br />
than ever that we gather together through the<br />
vehicle of the arts for this vital and necessary<br />
dialog.”<br />
In early April of this year, Max Reyneard,<br />
an oral historian and award-winning playwright<br />
with <strong>The</strong> Telling Project national<br />
organization, visited Chandler to interview<br />
nine area veterans and military family members<br />
about their experiences of service and its<br />
impact on their lives. Transcripts of those<br />
interviews – each of which was approximately<br />
90 minutes long – were then woven<br />
into the evening-length, storytelling theater<br />
event that will become Chandler’s own presentation<br />
of <strong>The</strong> Telling Project, unique to the<br />
veterans and communities of central Vermont.<br />
Chandler’s presentation of <strong>The</strong> Telling<br />
Project features a cast that spans the branches<br />
of U.S. military service and wars from<br />
Vietnam through the present day conflicts in<br />
Iraq and Afghanistan. Cast members include<br />
Vietnam and Vietnam-era veterans Peter<br />
Nowlan, Dave Peirce, Lori Peirce, and Ron<br />
Wold, Sr. from Randolph, and Vermont State<br />
Senator Mark McDonald from Williamstown.<br />
• • •<br />
He has commanded at the squadron, group,<br />
wing and joint levels, and throughout his<br />
career, has held a variety of leadership positions<br />
in various major commands, combatant<br />
commands - including the Director of<br />
Intelligence for U.S. Southern Command, the<br />
Defense Intelligence Agency and the National<br />
Security Agency, as well as being deployed to<br />
Afghanistan serving on the senior staff of<br />
Headquarters International Security<br />
Assistance Force and U.S. Forces Afghanistan.<br />
Prior to his current assignment, Geary served<br />
as the Deputy Director for Strategic<br />
Integration, Headquarters Defense<br />
Intelligence Agency, Washington, D.C.<br />
Geary was commissioned in 1988 as a<br />
distinguished graduate of the Air Force<br />
ROTC program at Norwich University. After<br />
commissioning, he served in the missile<br />
operations career field as Minuteman Ill<br />
Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Combat<br />
Crew Commander and instructor before transitioning<br />
to the intelligence career field.<br />
An open reception will follow the outdoor<br />
ceremony in the foyer of Jackman Hall.<br />
<strong>The</strong> uniform for this special event is the<br />
Service Class A uniform. Please plan on cold<br />
weather and dress accordingly.<br />
Amy Engsholmen of Albany, Vermont, is a<br />
Marine veteran from the Gulf War era. Rachel<br />
Putney of Randolph, Title IX coordinator at<br />
Norwich University, and Wayne Goulet of<br />
Waterbury, a business instructor at the<br />
Randolph Technical Career Center, are veterans<br />
of the contemporary conflicts in the<br />
Middle East. Ramsey Papp of Randolph, the<br />
wife of West Point graduate and longtime<br />
Vermont Army National Guard member<br />
Michael Papp, rounds out the cast. Charlie<br />
McMeekin, the longtime theater teacher at<br />
Randolph Union High School and <strong>The</strong> Sharon<br />
Academy, is the director. McMeekin also<br />
served for many years as the director of<br />
Chandler’s annual Fourth of July Summer<br />
Musical.<br />
Ayres first heard about <strong>The</strong> Telling Project<br />
one year ago at an annual gathering of arts<br />
presenters called Idea Swap, presented by the<br />
New England Foundation for the Arts<br />
(NEFA). Collaborating with two other performing<br />
arts venues in the region - Catamount<br />
Arts in St. Johnsbury and the Redfern Center<br />
for the Arts at Keene State College in New<br />
Hampshire – Chandler obtained a grant from<br />
NEFA to underwrite a portion of the cost of<br />
presenting <strong>The</strong> Telling Project at each of the<br />
three venues. (Catamount will mount its own,<br />
local production of <strong>The</strong> Telling Project this<br />
winter, while the Redfern Center at Keene<br />
State will do the same in the spring of 2019.)<br />
In addition to the NEFA support, subsequent<br />
grant and sponsorship support has also been<br />
garnered from the Vermont Arts Council, the<br />
Walter Cerf Community Fund of the Vermont<br />
Community Foundation, and Kinney Pike<br />
Insurance.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> generous funding support that this<br />
project has received is enabling Chandler to<br />
offer the broadest possible access to this performance<br />
for our entire community,” notes<br />
Ayres. “Tickets for <strong>The</strong> Telling Project are<br />
steeply discounted through a buy-one-getone-free<br />
option and tickets for veterans and<br />
students are further discounted.”<br />
