READ AN INTERVIEW WITH ARTHUR WIKNIK JR.

  

Arthur Wiknik, Jr. served in Vietnam with Co. A 2/506th of the 101st Airborne Division as an infantry squad leader from April 1969 to March 1970.  He was one of the first in his unit to safely reach the top of Hamburger Hill during the final assault.  A few months later, he prevented a possible attack on a remote firebase by discovering a nearby enemy weapons cache.  

    Arthur's writing credits include stories in Chicken Soup for the Brother and Sister Soul, Chicken Soup for the Mother and Son Soul, Chicken Soup for the Father and Daughter Soul and Chicken Soup for the Veteran’s Soul books.  He has also had articles in Army, Soldier of Fortune, Players, North American Whitetail, Rural New England and Heading Out magazines.

    Proud of his military service, Arthur gives talks at schools, colleges and civic organizations about his Vietnam experiences.  A dedicated community volunteer, Arthur is a 16-year member of the Haddam Memorial Day Parade Committee, is a founding member of the Haddam Veteran's Museum and is a life member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars.

    Arthur lives in Connecticut and works as a Quality Engineer.  He is available for book signings and to give presentations on his Vietnam War experiences.

Serving in the US military army is one of the most important things you can do for yourself and your country – and the people you meet during your time in the armed forces are sure to be some of the most important individuals in your life.
