I don't know how many there are out there.With over 30 assisted living facilities in the area, I would like to order 200 pins if available. This would be an ongoing project. It would be an honor to do this. I am filling in blanks with approximate numbers. I honestly don't know how many Vietnam/Vietnam era Veterans are living in assisted living.

Strawberry River Chapter, NSDAR, has reached out to the local schools in the 3 counties we service to request information on what programs or recognition ceremonies they may be conducting for Vietnam Veterans Recognition Day. It is our intent to be present for as many of those events as possible and to personally recognize Vietnam Veterans and attending family members for their service and sacrifice . It is difficult to provide exact numbers, as they have yet to provide the information. It may be they only host one event which historically is Veterans Day. If that is the case, during Veterans Day, we would specifically and additionally recognize and honor Vietnam Veterans. Additionally, we are aware of homebound Vietnam Veterans and those who reside in local nursing homes that we will visit and recognize.

We order these pins to be presented one on one by a Vietnam Veteran volunteer to a Vietnam Veteran hospice patient. Our ceremonies are in conjunction with the Quilts of valor when the person qualifies for a Quilt of Valor. When they do not qualify for a Quilt due to being Vietnam-era vs in country, we instead give them a patriotic blanket sewn by our volunteers. This meaningful "pinning ceremony" is often met with tears and always concludes with a salute and when the Veteran patient returns the salute, the family members become tearful. When the spouse of the Veteran is present, we also make a presentation to the spouse with the poem of the military spouse being read. We are also sure to recognize any other Veterans who are attending the individual event with a separate Veteran flag pin.

The event will include the presentation of colors by the Vietnam Veterans, Inc., Color Guard and recognition and pinning of our Vietnam-era veterans. Speakers will include Linh Nguyen, who escaped Saigon in April 1975 and Judge Michael McCarthy, who served in Vietnam as a Navy Seabee in 1970-1971. The evening’s special honoree will be Vietnam Army Combat Medic Ted Debiak who lost his left arm in an artillery attack on December 25, 1967. But the attack was friendly.

At our event, Brigadier General John Pippy will present Ted with his Purple Heart. Every Vietnam Veteran registered for this event will receive a gift bag as a token of our gratitude for your service. We also want to recognize Red Cross Volunteers and Donut Dollies who served with the U.S. Armed Forces between 1955-1975. They deserved to be honored with a Welcome Home Bag also!

Montana, a Proud partner with The U.S.A. Vietnam War Commemoration, is commemorating Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day on March 29, 2024, throughout the State. In 2011 the 62nd Montana Legislature enacted into law House Bill 255, entitled, “Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day”. The act established that annually on March 30th that Montana should recognize and thank its Vietnam Veterans with appropriate tributes. This date was chosen based on the language of the 1973 Vietnam Peace Accords; the United States agreed to remove the remaining military units from the Republic of Vietnam within 60 days of signing that document. Approximately 5,500 personnel remained in Vietnam on March 29th, 1973. Based on travel, March 30th was the arrival date in the US. See Enclosure 1 to this Media Advisory for the full Text of House Bill 255, (62nd Legislature, 2011). Most Important!!! Public Law 115-15—March 28, 2017, amended title 4, United States Code, to encourage the display of flag on National Vietnam War Veterans Day. Be it enacted by the senate and the House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, Section 1, Short Title. This Act may be cited as the “Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act of 2017”. Sec. 2. Display of Flag on National Vietnam Veterans Day. Section 6(d) of title 4, United States Code, is amended by inserting “National Vietnam Veterans Day, March 29;” after “third Monday in February;”. Approved March 28, 2017. Enclosure 2 This effectively moved the official date of Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day to March 29, 2021. STATE-WIDE: Montana state/community level event(s) are recommended to recognize the over 36,000 Montana men and women who served during the era many in the Republic of Vietnam from 1959-1975. 268 Montana men paid the ultimate price either killed in action (KIA) or died from non-hostile causes during this period.

Ray is the director of the Military Museum and past commander of the American Legion of Montana and VFW. This is the ninth year the event has been conducted and the 13th year the event has been held in Montana. Legislation was passed in 2011 to make it an official event of the State of Montana. The event planning was the effort of the Montana Military Museum Committee and Oro Fino Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR). Sponsors of the event are the Montana Department of Military Affairs, American Legion Post #2 (Lewis & Clark Post), and the Veterans Administration. The event started with a Veterans Honor Walk around the Capitol Building to the Freedom Tree where a memorial wreath was placed. The Honor Walk included members of the Sons of the American Revolution, Daughters of the American Revolution, POW-MIA Awareness group who carried flags representing each branch of the U.S. military, members of the American Legion and VFW, as well as other veterans and their families. The ceremony started at 11 a.m. where Vietnam Veterans and their spouses, Gold Star Families, and POW-MIA families were honored with a Vietnam veteran commemorative lapel pin. The ceremony opened with the signing of the Star Spangled Banner and the pledge of allegiance and Native American ceremonial songs by the Magpie Drummers. The Governor's proclamation was read. Kenneth Rosenbaum, a U.S. Army veteran of the Vietnam War, was the guest speaker. Ken described his experiences upon his arrival at Pleiku, Vietnam, as a new Army helicopter pilot to the 189th Assault Helicopter "Ghostriders," 52nd Combat Aviation Battalion, 1st Aviation Brigade. 24 flag awards were presented by DAR and SAR.
