Scope and Contents

Typescript of an interview conducted by Tony Sippert on 29 Jan. 1985 for the Ray Hillam Project. Brennan was born and raised in New York City and was an Irish Catholic. His father served in the United States Army which influenced Edward's decision to enlist in 1969. Edward went to aviation school and flew a helicopter. He was stationed with the First Cavalry Division in Vietnam and worked with medical evacuation units and rescue operations. He said that the Vietnam War was not justified and that the United States should not have been there, but he developed a healthy respect for human life. He joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints after the war.
