KOREAN WAR VETERANS ASSOCIATION
TELL AMERICA CHAPTER PARTICIPATION HONOR ROLL
The chapters listed here are those that I know on 2/28/2011 who have active Tell America programs in place.
Members of these chapters are making a difference in the lives of people in their communities, especially the
students in the schools where they make their presentations. They have accepted the challenge and are fulfilling
the obligation of telling the story of the Korean War and helping our citizens understand the true meaning of
the FREEDOMS that we all enjoy in this country. All of us must continue to tell of what we did in Korea 60 years
ago to stop the advancement of Communism and allow the South Korean people to live in freedom.
I feel sure this list is not complete because I do not know about all the chapters that have active Tell
America programs. I know of these chapters and their activities through the website survey, looking back through
old Graybeard magazines and those I have talked with over the past 6 years that I have been Chairman. If you
have an active program and your name is not on the list, I will happily add your name if you will let me know
by email at larry.kinard@yahoo.com or telephone at 682-518-1040.

TELL AMERICA PowerPoint Presentation
We have had several requests recently for a PowerPoint program that can be used in the Tell America presentations.
Now we have one!!! Thanks to Ryan Yantis former Executive Director of the Korean War National Museum who put
in several hours developing the program. The file can be downloaded to your computer and used with Microsoft
Office PowerPoint software. I think this can be a significant enhancement to Tell America presentations and
I hope many of you will try it out. It may be a little long for some school presentations but should work well
for civic clubs and other community type programs. If you do use it I would appreciate some feedback on how
it works for you. Thanks again to Ryan Yantis for his good work on this!" Larry Kinard, National Tell America
Chairman

To: All of our Chapters... WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Many of our chapters have active and successful Tell America programs. Their membership is
involved and they are making a difference in our schools and communities in their understanding of the
Korean War and the freedoms we enjoy today.
We have very little information on which chapters have these programs, and we would like to know
who has and who hasn't. Please click the following link to a brief on-line survey designed to
help give us that information.
Tell America Program Survey
Thanks for your participation in this survey. It will be a big help for our Tell America Program.

This information was developed by David DePew in
1996 and mailed to many KWVA chapters at that time. It should be particularly helpful to those just
getting started in the Tell America program. There are two versions of this presentation. The above
is designed to be used without the 31 minute video entitled "Bloody Korea". Shortly, I will add the
version that is intended to go with the video. I can make a copy of the tape and will mail it to anyone
who is interested in using it for a Tell America presentation, for $15 to cover the duplication and shipping.
