Vietnam War 50th Anniversary

The Department of Defense Department has begun a project to pay
tribute to the nation's Vietnam War veterans. At the
center of the
project is the website
"50th Anniversary of the Vietnam War Commemoration", which will serve as a clearinghouse for information
on the war once it is fully functional this spring. The new website will chronicle facts, provide educational materials and offer resources for
a commemorative partners program, which will offer guidance and
materials for organizations to conduct their own Vietnam War commemoration activities.
