On Thursday, Col. Ken Cordier will be at the C.C. Young senior living community to talk about his time spent in a communist prison and how he eventually returned home. The former Air Force fighter pilot’s presentation, titled “It’s Great to be Alive and Free,” will take place at 10 a.m. at C.C. Young’s The Point & Pavilion, 4847 West Lawther.
