Did you Know…

The Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act was signed into law in 2017 which designates March 29th of every year as National Vietnam War Veterans Day.

The date is a fitting choice for a day honoring Vietnam veterans. It was chosen to be observed in perpetuity because March 29th, 1973 was the day United States Military Assistance Command, Vietnam was disestablished and also the day the last U.S. combat troops departed Vietnam. In addition, on and around this same day Hanoi released the last of its acknowledged prisoners of war.
