“From an Idyllic Novato Childhood to the Jungles of Vietnam and Beyond” will be the featured topic. Darren Walton, Novato High Grad, Vietnam War Hero and Award-winning author, will reminisce about growing up in Novato, and recount his life-changing experience as “recon” U.S. Marine, one of the military’s most dangerous jobs. Anyone interested in Novato history is welcome to attend.
