About the event

VETERAN SPEAKER
Coming to the American Legion Post #386 Auxiliary.
On Sunday October 19th, 2:00 pm. OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

CAPT. WILLIAM "HAWK" ALBRACHT is a highly decorated Vietnam veteran and retired Secret Service agent. Over a White House career spanning 25 years, he protected six American Presidents and numerous foreign dignitaries. Following his retirement from the Secret Service, Albracht managed Executive Security Operations for the Ford Motor Company before returning to his home town to open a security consulting business. He penned a book, with co-author Capt. Marvin J. Wolf (ret.) about his Vietnam experience holding Firebase Kate against enormous odds. The book, Abandoned In Hell: The Fight For Vietnam's Firebase Kate has received acclaim from a number of military and civilian reviewers, and was made into a documentary. In current time, Albracht's focus is on motivational speaking, security and management consulting.
