In anticipation of the state's annual Vietnam Veterans Day on March 30th, House members are encouraging veterans throughout the state to come forward to receive recognition for their service. Vietnam Veterans will be honored at the State Capitol in the House Chamber by the Speaker of the House and the members of the House of Representatives. Each veteran will also receive an official House Resolution in honor of the service they provided to the nation.
Vietnam Veterans Day was created by the General Assembly with the passage of HB 1298 in 2012. It is meant to recognize the courage and patriotism of those who served during the Vietnam Conflict. During the day, Missourians are encouraged to hold events, activities, and remembrances in honor of the veterans who bravely fought, served and sacrificed during the Vietnam Conflict and returned home to no parades, ceremonies or public celebrations to welcome them in gratitude for their courageous service given and sacrifices made on behalf of our nation.
If you or someone you know would like to be honored, please contact Brenda Frank in the office of the Honorable Cloria Brown, 94th District House of Representatives, at 573-751-3719 to make arrangements.
