This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

National Vietnam War Veterans Day: Its Formation
In 2008, President George W. Bush signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act, authorizing the secretary of defense to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Vietnam War (or American War a the Vietnamese call it).
President Barack Obama specified the March 29 date in the Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act of 2017. This would be the official date of recognition.
