Yes, Brother!

Thank you Brother! Until I saw this post, I was unaware that we had a day. I love this Forum.

I believe it was officially recognized in 2017. Not a vet, I was born in 1972. But I am still amazed by your service and sacrifice.

All gave some. Some gave all. You won’t be forgotten.

Very well done tribute, I just don’t know how to embed.

Thank you, 1969-70.

I went to a small High School we lost individual's in the classes of 1962-63-64&66

My best to all Vietnam Vets.

I didn't know that we old farts had a "day"!! Well how about that??

Many thanks to those who went and their families.

Wow..
Thanks for posting this.
I didn't know they made it official.

My father was in Country from ( I believe) 03/1968 to mid 1969.

He was stationed and worked out of Landing Zone Uplift north of Phù Mỹ.

Thanks to the internet I have learned that the Army had never tried to make it anything more than it was, a temporary combat base in Charlie's back yard. It was largely a tent city, every piece of wood from ammo boxes found a home somewhere. Creature comfort wasn't high on the agenda.

The base camp was a sprawl of mud, soggy sandbags and tents. It measured about a half-mile square, and the surrounding terrain was “all mountains and rice paddies.”

Thanks to all those that served, our members here and the families that supported them.
