Today is National Vietnam War Veterans Day which marks the day in 1973 when the final troops returned to the United States from Vietnam, signaling the end of U.S. involvement in the war. We salute and express our tremendous gratitude to this generation of Americans who honorably served our Nation. Welcome home.
