I propose that there should be a special recognized day for Vietnam Veterans....What are your thoughts?Response by SrA Jeff Campbell made Jul 24 at 2014 1:41 PM2014-07-24T13:41:29-04:002014-07-24T13:41:29-04:001SG Private RallyPoint Member185373<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There is, it's called Veterans Day!Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made Jul 24 at 2014 2:04 PM2014-07-24T14:04:45-04:002014-07-24T14:04:45-04:00SFC Private RallyPoint Member185496<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><br />As much as I love any holiday that will let me have a day off, I don't see the need for another holiday for veterans.

Personally I have 365 of them a year because there is not a day that goes by where something doesn't remind me of those days.<br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://biggeekdad.com/2014/07/empty-chair/">http://biggeekdad.com/2014/07/empty-chair/</a> <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default">

I think just recognizing their service and sacrifice is enough.
