Vietnam War
The Vietnam War began November 1, 1955 and ended April 30, 1975. Many of our U.S. troops were lost at a very young age. Our own McKinley Rice, Joseph "Freddie" Smith and Wayne Roberts were among the heroes who never came home. We also lost Milton Perry who was active duty stateside in Arizona when he was tragically taken while serving in the Air Force.
To those who came home from Nam,
Welcome Home!!!
Several served after this time period.
