Next month, I will honor Vietnam veterans in commemorative pinning ceremonies in Goliad and Raymondville, Texas. These ceremonies are part of the Vietnam War 50th Commemoration program that recognizes Vietnam War veterans and their families for their honorable service, and for the sacrifices, they have made for our nation. Each veteran in attendance will receive a Vietnam Veteran Lapel Pin provided by the official Commemoration office for their active duty service between November 1, 1955, and May 15, 1975.
