Leland VFW Post 12196 will host a National Vietnam War Veterans Day on March 29, 2021, at 5 pm. The event will be held at the Belville Memorial Park on Hwy. 133 (US 17) in Belville. The commemoration recognizes all who served on active duty in the U. S. Armed Forces at any time from November 1, 1955, to May 15, 1975.
As part of that ceremony, veterans will receive the Vietnam Veterans Lapel Pin shown (left) as a lasting memento of the nation’s gratitude. Surviving spouses of those who served will also be recognized. This commemoration includes veterans classified as “Vietnam Era Veterans.” Everyone who served during that time played a role, thus the saying, “All gave some, some gave all.”
Veterans and their family members MUST pre-register to receive the pin. If you would like to be a part of this event, please complete the registration form below and email it to Nate Pringle at [email protected] or mail to P.O. Box 488, Leland, NC 28451. Deadline for submission is March 1, 2021.
