Honor and Remembrance... |
| The Mercer County Vietnam Era Veterans were honored to have hosted and set up a trip to Washington when the WWII Memorial was dedicated. We enjoyed the company of many WWII Veterans.. Ladies and Gentlemen all. It meant alot to our organization to be able to present something of value to the Generation that was our parents. Long time coming but forever remembered. |
