Ron,
The flags are purchased for any veteran. The flags are not just for Vietnam Veterans. It can be in hornor or in memory of a veteran. To you, I also say thanks for what you are doing to honor veterans in your hometown.
The Heroes Homecoming is Fayetteville's way of saying a long overdue "Welcome Home" to Vietnam Veterans. There are a number of sporting events, shows, demonstrations, movies, museum exhibits, symposiums, redidication of the relocated Vietnam War Memorial, and cultral events taken place all over Fayetteville during the ten days (4-13 Nov). There will be a Veterans Day parade Saturday. There is a spot in the parade for all the Vietnam Veterans that would like to march in the parade. Sunday the final day there will be Fellowship Breakfast at one of the local churches. This has and is a wonderful tribute for Vietnam Veterans.
