Description
In April, 2004, retired Col. Vítor Alves was invited to attend the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Portuguese Revolution of April 25, 1974. The occasion was the annual meeting of the Luso-American Education Foundation, held that year on the UC Berkeley campus. On Monday, April 26, Deolinda Adao and I sat down with Col. Alves to discuss briefly his major role in the Revolution and its aftermath. He also talked a bit about his formative years and the influence they had on his career.
