When Vietnam War veteran Fred Froehlich was honorably discharged from the U.S. Navy in November 1970 after serving a year aboard an attack carrier in the Gulf of Tonkin, the hunter and conservationist remembers his father eventually asking him, upon his return home, if wanted to join the Nicollet Conservation Club.
Never one to mince words, the younger Froehlich fired, and for effect. “No,” he said. “You guys don’t do anything for wildlife.”
