Ongoing impact is shown by veteran Craig Tschetter, whom we featured in an Emmy Award- winning story, Fifteen Minutes Ago: A Vietnam War Story, that aired on April 8, 2021. We published an extended interview that went viral and still catches a viral wave every once in a while. When asked whether our work together had ongoing impact for him recently, Craig responded: “What the documentary has done for my book sales and helping veterans has been beyond words. First, the book sales skyrocketed after you released the unedited version on YouTube. People viewed it all across the U.S., Canada, and England. I can’t thank you enough. To give you some numbers, I continue to receive royalties today (seven years after it went public in 2017). This month, readers purchased eighty-three books, and last month, sixty-seven. Those are typical numbers for 2024. Veterans have sent me letters, emails, and text messages telling me how much the book has meant to them and how they can identify with my story. They have said, “The book was outstanding; my honesty and willingness to share my story has found a place in their heart. I never dreamt it would ever be so meaningful to so many readers. There is no way to count how many have read the book or how many veterans have been touched because readers share books if they are worth reading.” – Craig Tschetter, Vietnam War Vet
