National Vietnam War Veterans Day commemorates March 29, 1973, the day the last U.S. combat troops departed Vietnam. They took an oath to serve this country, to protect our freedom and fight for the greater good. In times of conflict, they risked everything. In times of peace, they worked tirelessly to preserve it. Today we pause and honor the men and women in uniform who serve this country and offer our deepest gratitude.

Our Company’s SALUTE ARC mission is to inspire, empower, support and educate veterans, their families and veteran advocates with a team dedicated to veteran wellness, leadership and advancement. Please join us in thanking and honoring Vietnam War veterans today and every day for their service to our nation.
