Did you know there is a Veterans Day at the Iowa State Fair? Every year on the Monday of the Iowa State Fair, they take time to celebrate and honor Iowa Veterans.
That is Iowa Department of Veteran Affairs Public Information Officer Karl Lettow. He says the parade typically starts at 11am on the Iowa State Fairgrounds. He says they have been honoring the Vietnam War Veterans as this year marks the 50th Anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War.
Lettow says the National Celebration for Vietnam Veterans will happen on Veterans Day this year.
