Landing Zone Peace Ranch (LZPR)
The Landing Zone Peace Ranch (LZPR) is a cabin offered to Military/EMS who need a quiet place to heal, meet, or think. Built by Military/EMS, the location was chosen for its military standpoint. The cabin sits against a hill, so visitors can feel safe and easily see the surroundings.
Welcome Home Film
A look at life after the war
In 2015, Vietnam Veterans from the VA/Peace Ranch program harnessed their ideas about being “thanked for their service” to make an educational video.
Their project was taken on by Luke Broyles, a video prodigy and student at Interlochen High School. Each Veteran was interviewed at Peace Ranch and the compilation of these interviews were synthesized into a documentary video the Veterans titled ‘Welcome Home.’ The first preview of the film occurred at the 2016 VA Conference in Traverse City, MI and is continuing to win accolades at film festivals around the country!
