Local Veterans were honored for their service during the Vietnam Conflict by the erection of a small version of the Vietnam Wall in Washington, D.C. The dedication of this wall which is located on the grounds of the Bassett Historical Center took place on November 11, 2018. The 105 Veterans who missed the deadline to have their names included on the wall will be honored by the installation of a bench that complements the existing Vietnam Wall. The “Military Square” which is located on the grounds of the Bassett Historical Center will be completed with the Vietnam Wall, Vietnam Bench, and Korean Conflict Bench.

Please join us on November 11, 2024 at 11:00 am at the HJDB Event Center as the dedication of the Vietnam Bench will be part of the Veteran’s Day Service sponsored by the VSO.
