Vietnam Veterans
were finally honored and given a Homecoming of their
own after 39 years of the Vietnam War being over.
VFW Post 4007 in Hempstead Texas, hosted a Parade,
Speeches and other events to welcome the Vietnam
Veterans Home.
President Obama
signed a proclamation on March 29th, 2012, making
March 29th officially Vietnam Veteran's Day to be
remembered every year on the 29th of March.
The last soldier to leave Vietnam was on March 29th,
1973 after over a decade with a conflict in Vietnam,
but those soldiers never received the proper welcome
home that they so deserved. Today, a mistake
was corrected with the proclamation put into full
effect in Hempstead Texas, as some of those Vietnam
Veterans were shown the gratitude by the American
Public in a small town in Texas.
