Rick Springfield, the Australian-American rocker best known for his 1981 Grammy-winning hit Jessie’s Girl and his role as ‘Dr. Noah Drake’ on General Hospital, is trending for a harrowing Vietnam War revelation. In an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience on September 8, 2026, he recalled his 1968 tour with band MPD Ltd. to entertain US troops.
Rick said in the interview that during an attack at a Navy camp near Da Nang, he fired five to six mortars and was later told one had killed a fighter, a memory he still struggles to process. While Rick’s claims are now going viral, his career and personal life have grabbed a lot of attention. For the unversed, he has been married to Barbara Porter since 1984.
