James McEachin and The Purple Heart
Original Airdates: Nov. 11-14, 2022
TVC 596.4: An encore presentation of a conversation with actor and author James McEachin (The Perry Mason Mysteries, Tenafly, The Heroin Factor, Farewell to the Mockingbirds, Tell Me a Tale) that originally aired during Veterans Day weekend in 2014. At the time we spoke to James, he was developing The Purple Heart, a screen project based on the true story of the discovery of a lost Purple Heart medal that belonged to Lt. Henry Schenk, James’ patrol leader in the Korean War—and the role James played in helping restore that medal to Schenk’s family. The film also discusses the history of the Purple Heart itself, plus issues such as survivors guilt, the right and wrongs of war, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
