Doug Tizya, Melvin Swan and the Bold Eagle program

For many years Melvin Swan (beside me) has been involved with the Bold Eagle program which combines cultural and military training for aboriginal youth. Doug Tizya (far right), recently returned from Afghanistan, went through the program and speaks highly of the Bold Eagle program for aboriginal youth.

Doug Tizya and Melvin Swan were both at the 5th Annual gathering of the Bear Clan, and Doug Tizya spoke of his recent experiences in Afghanistan. His return was so recent that his military uniform has not yet arrived.
