Vietnam Veterans were honored on Wednesday at the Iowa Veterans Home by the Veterans Administration. Iowa Commission on Veterans Affairs Chairman Dan Gammon says the V-A wanted to honor the veterans 50 plus years after there service and did so by thanking the vets in a receiving line of officials and by pining a lapel pin on each of them. Veterans walked, some were in wheel chairs in doing so. A Vietnam Veterans Recognition Day will be held at the Iowa State Capitol Complex on the grounds at the Vietnam Wall on May the 5th. The V-A also held a Town Hall meeting at the Veterans Home on Wednesday. The Veterans Home is working to help Vietnam Veterans get the benefits they have coming to them.
