CANCELED - Honor and commemorate the sacrifices of Vietnam veterans and their families on National Vietnam Veterans Day. This program will feature two keynote addresses and a service pinning ceremony. Signed into law in 2017, the Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act designates March 29 of each year as National Vietnam War Veterans Day, which is part of a national effort to recognize the men and women who were denied a proper welcome upon returning home more than 40 years ago. This program is offered in conjunction with the exhibition, The Vietnam War: 1945-1975, a traveling exhibition from the New-York Historical Society. FREE with RSVP | Memorial Courtyard
