News From We Honor Veterans
Welcome Home Vietnam
Veterans Day 2019
Hospice of Alliance, Inc of Pleasant Prairie, WI recognized over 60 Vietnam Veterans
on March 29 at two services thanking them, welcoming them home and giving
them a pin signifying their service. The POWs from that era were also recognized.
In 2017, the Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act
established the National Vietnam War Veterans
Day to be celebrated each year on March 29. Many
of our We Honor Veterans partners from all levels
participated in or hosted Welcome Home Vietnam
Veterans Day events. A Welcome Home event is not
only important for hospice patients, it is important
for the community, as well. Events ranged from 30
to 900 people in attendance.
Many Veterans of the Vietnam era were not treated
with respect upon their return home. They've
shared stories of removing their uniform and
changing back into civilian clothes upon their
arrival in the states. Our We Honor Veteran partners
throughout the country have made this day special
for the Vietnam Veterans in their care and in the
community. Thank you to all of our partners who
hosted Welcome Home events and submitted stories.
We cannot wait to see more Welcome Home events
throughout the year!
