1987 World Freedom Day in the Republic of China

Jim Van Schaack was a guest at the 1987 World Freedom Day in the Republic of China (Taiwan) held every year by The World Anti-Communist League (WACL). This particular event took place January 17-23, 1987. The theme of the event was to “Defend Freedom Against Communism and Overthrow Chinese Communist Tyranny!” Approximately 130 guests from around the world stayed at The Grand Hotel in Taipei, Taiwan. The event actually lasted several days. Jim and the other guests were escorted by motorcycles as they left their hotel. They were taken to visit the Martyrs Shrine where they laid a wreath. Jim
