If you grew up in south Florida during the 1960s and 1970s, you probably started most mornings watching The Skipper Chuck Show on WTVJ (then Channel 4). In this clip from the Wolfson Archives at Miami Dade College, Skipper Chuck Zink explains the meaning of Memorial Day to kids. As usual, Zink never talked down to his audience. Enjoy.
