Events

I continue to present to Vietnam veterans lapel pins and thank them for their service wherever I meet them. On November 2, 2022, I will make presentations at a Republican Women's luncheon. They are honoring Vietnam veterans & have invited me to do the honors. I always tell the recipients about the DOD Commemorative. You have allowed our Veterans to feel the warmth & gratitude of America.

When a Vietnam Veteran is awarded a Quilt of Valor, a Lapel Pin is also presented to the veteran. I anticipate hosting several ceremonies between now and the end of the Commemorative. I am nearly out pins, proclamations, and Fact Sheets and would appreciate whatever you can provide.

Ongoing Individaul presentations of Vietnam Veteran Lapel Pins withever a Vietnam Veteran is identified such at events like the traveling "Wall That Heals".

Vietnam Veteran Gerald E. Augustine Vice-President of the Greater Middletown Military Museum and author of Vietnam Beyond speaks about his life before and after his service in Vietnam. Veterans may receive commemorative pins if they have not previously received them. Family members may receive family member pins or surviving spouse pins, if qualified. Attendees will have the opportunity to receive supporter pins if they desire.
