Operation Black Sheep

The John McClurg Foundation for Vietnam Veterans
Picture

Why do we call this Non-Profit Organization Operation Black Sheep, you ask? When veterans go to war and come home, we are different. Sometimes it is for the good; but, often times, things that were once easy become a struggle. We are changed because of the realities of war, and sometimes feel like the general population does not understand us.  Service members can be made to feel like the black sheep of the community. It is our goal to promote a sense of belonging, respect, and brotherhood among veterans and the general public alike.  


Operation Black Sheep offers a meaningful and engaging experience that recognizes the sacrifices, courage, and valor of all military veterans. It fosters a thorough understanding of the Vietnam Era; including, the political, historical, social, cultural and military aspects of the Vietnam War.  By maintaining and preserving the Mark II Patrol Boat River (PBR) in operational condition, it will allow people (both military and civilian) to experience firsthand the thrill of riding on an operational PBR. We will strive to preserve the legacy and history of the Brown Water Navy of Vietnam. This will be open to the public so everyone can have the opportunity to ride on a unique piece of Vietnam history.  However, each month specific dates will be reserved for veterans to take a ride and leave their ill feelings behind with the river.  By riding, touching and experiencing, one of the few remaining PBRs, veterans suffering from PTSD will find peace and comfort on the lake aboard our PBR. 

We Would Love to Have You Visit Soon!
