>Peace Corps Week

by Cliff | Posted on

>This is Peace Corps Week and tomorrow, March 1, is the 46th Anniversary of the founding of the Peace Corps. At about this time in 1976, thirty years ago, I had been in South Korea for two months and was about to begin my assignment. Amazing that it’s been that long. Best Wishes to all present and past Volunteers!
