As Veterans Day approaches I want to feature a few of those highly deserving of the honor of being called veterans. 

These following pictures are from the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda. They are POWs who were freed at the end of the war. 

Regardless of what you may think of the war and its stated purposes, no one can deny that these paid a terrible and lasting price. 

They deserve our honor and respect.

Next time, on November 9th, we will return to Delaware, so join me there, as usual, at 9:00 am.

To see additional memorials from California, or any other state, please click a state name on the left side of this page. Please note that Canada, Ireland, and Puerto Rico have been added to the list.

If you are following along at all, you will have seen that a number of you, like Joan from Wisconsin, Tony from Texas, Mike from Maryland, Ron from Florida, Tim from Virginia and Molly from Florida, Colleen from Pennsylvania, and very soon Elli from Maryland, among others, have responded to my request to send me memorials you have seen in your area or where you may have traveled. I even got one from Ireland! These submissions help expand the knowledge of how we have remembered the men and women who served or were lost in 'Nam and you help to honor them. If you have any such photos, I would love to see them. Please send them along to the email at the left and I will gladly share them here. Thanks, once again, to all who have contributed.
