TV personality Pat Sajak, who served as a AFVN Army DJ in Vietnam, will be a contestant on Celebrity Jeopardy in an episode that is scheduled to air on Thursday, January 21. The big news is that Sajak, who received Vietnam Veterans of America’s Excellence in the Arts Award at the 2009 National Convention in Louisville, has designated VVA as the beneficiary of his Jeopardy winnings.

Sajak (above in Army uniform) sat for hours giving autographs and having his photo taken with VVA members before the Awards Banquet in Louisville. And he gave a gracious and funny speech to accept the award. He also has a page on his web site devoted to VVA.
