Mr. Chicoine was honored to be invited to speak on June 9, 2007 at the dedication of the Minnesota World War Two Veterans Memorial on the capitol grounds in St. Paul.

He spoke to the students of Cass Lake High School on the Cass Lake Indian Reservation in northern Minnesota on the importance of establishing a vision for one's life and goal-setting as a means to success.

Mr. Chicoine annually moderates veterans' sessions at Minnesota's Wings of the North Air Show. He has enjoyed the company of World War Two bomber pilots, Tuskegee Airmen and modern-day era astronauts.

He is a member of the Board of Directors of The Harold C. Deutsch World War II History Roundtable and from time to time moderates sessions. Most recently he facilitated a round table on the liberation of the Nazi camps by American forces at the end of the war. He is scheduled to moderate an upcoming session on the role of the OSS in the war.
