Congressman Robert Aderholt will host two Vietnam Veteran pinning ceremonies this August to honor and thank Vietnam veterans living in Alabama’s Fourth Congressional District for their service and sacrifice.
The ceremonies will take place in Tuscumbia and Cleveland, Alabama.
These events are part of the ongoing United States of America Vietnam War Commemoration effort to give long-overdue recognition to those who served during the Vietnam War era.
Family members and the public are welcome to attend.
“These men and women served our nation with courage during a difficult chapter in our history, and many never received the recognition they so rightfully deserved when they returned home,” Aderholt said. “These ceremonies are a small but heartfelt way to say ‘thank you’ on behalf of a grateful nation.”
