I served in the USNAVY at the very beginning of the Vietnam war.Although I got out of service to go to my husbands home in S.C.,I was proud to have been in service to my country. I am very proud of the Americans and Canadians who served during that time. I now live in Canada with my Canadian husband and both countries will alway be in my heart.

Admin reply: Hi Karen, always a pleasure to hear from a veteran like you. You have good reasons to be proud of serving your great country. We are blessed to be part of two freedom-loving countries such as Canada and the USA!

Hello Paul,
I met your brother Roland at the ANAF # 1 branch and he mentioned you are a Vietnam Veteran.
We are very proud of our Vietnam Veterans and especially Canadian Veterans.
It is time to recognize the contribution made by Vietnam Veterans who were simply responding to what their country and the free world asked of them at the time.We also remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice then and now.
Whatever else we fail to do - We will not fail to think of you.
Please feel free to visit my website

Outstanding Fellas! Keep up the good work....

Admin reply: Nice to hear from you Greg and thanks for signing the guestbook. We met for the first time on Memorial Day '07. I sent you the June '07 C.V.V.A. Newsletter, but it was "Returned to Sender", as I did not have your correct address. Hope to see you at the next meeting. (Paul Dufault)
