Vietnam War
Remembrance
VACAT honors the courage, sacrifice, and legacy of our Vietnam War veterans and all who have served our nation by organizing community events such as:

Our goal is to pay tribute to the veterans and their families whose lives were forever impacted by the Vietnam War, as well as to educate younger generations about this powerful time in history.
