March 29 marked a very important national observance: National Vietnam War Veterans Day.
On this special day of remembrance, Dixon Center for Military and Veterans Services (the Center) visited several historic locations, including the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

Today’s veterans can talk about their combat experiences in large part because our Vietnam veterans could not or would not.
