Many thanks to the 30+ Friends of the MA Veterans Memorial Cemetery volunteers who signed up to staff our table at the National Wreaths Across America Mobile Education Exhibit (MEE) at the Big E during 13 days of the Big E!
In 2012, our Nation launched a 13-year long commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Vietnam War to ensure that every veteran, family, caregiver, and survivor impacted by the difficult years in Vietnam feels our Nation's gratitude for their sacrifice.
Seeing Vietnam War veterans being recognized with commemoration certificates and lapel pins made this event truly heartwarming.
Join the Nation...thank a Vietnam veteran!
