Thank you to all the Vietnam vets. :patriot:

And thank you to the President for a long past due day of remembrance:
In March 2017, President Trump, signed into law the designation of celebrating every March 29 as National Vietnam War Veterans Day.
The left lies about everything. Truth is a liberal value, and truth is a conservative value, but it has never been a left-wing value. People on the left say whatever advances their immediate agenda. Power is their moral lodestar; therefore, truth is always subservient to it. - Dennis Prager

Technically anyone who was in the armed forces during the Viet Nam war is a Viet Nam vet. I was in the service at that time but never left the USA and I don't consider myself a Viet Nam vet but technically I am. My best buddy at the time went to Thailand unofficially. I personally don't consider myself a Viet Nam vet and leave the glory to those that did the actual fighting. Thank you for your service and contribution. You all did much more than I did.

-The same sentiments here, but there was another "war" going on at the time, the Cold War. While we weren't as at much risk, we did our part to win this one. Those who served in Vietnam fought 2 wars.
