Thanks

Vietnam Brothers


This site is to honor the veterans of the Vietnam War and the memory of more than 58,000 of our brothers and sisters who never came home. We also want to honor and pay tribute to all veterans of all wars. Heroes ALL. It is to them, to those that paid the ultimate price, and those who are still missing and still serving, that we dedicate this web site.


Hero


Enjoy Your Freedom?

Then thank a vet. They are the ones who paid for it. Always remember, a veteran is someone who at one point in his or her life wrote a blank check, up to and including their life, made payable to the United States of America.

And just in case no one has told you yet, "Welcome Home. We're proud of you".


Today is:

"Let every nation know…
whether it wishes us well or ill
that we shall pay any price
bear any burden
meet any hasrdship
support any friend
opposse any foe
to assure the survival
and the succes of liberty"

John Fitzgerald Kennedy,
From His Inaugural Address
January 20, 1961


"If you are able, save for them a place inside of you
and save one backward glance when you are leaving
for the places they can no longer go.
Be not ashamed to say you loved them,
though you may or may not have always.

Take what they have left and what they have taught
you with their dying, and keep it with your own.
And in that day when men decide and feel safe
to call the war insane, take one moment to embrace
those gentle heroes you left behind."

Major Michael O'Donnell
January 1, 1970
Dak To, Vietnam

O'Donnell, a helicopter pilot, was declared Missing in Action
March 24, 1970, during a rescue attempt. His remains
were returned in 1995 and identified in 2001.














Special Items of Intrest

Easter 2026


Need a New ID Card?

All branches of the military are informing retires, and dependents that they MUST obtain the new DOD I.D. Card ASAP. This program was begun last year, but suspended due to the Covid Pandemic. It has begun again, but due to shortages you MUST make an appointment. To schedule an appointment, 940-676-4314, Mon-Fri at FSS/FSMPC (Personnel/CBPO, located at 426 Tuskegee Aiman Avenue, Bldg 404. If you DO NOT get the csard by some future, the gate guard will begin confiscated, thus you will lose to places as, Commisary, Base Exchange, etc.


VA Appointments

Schedule early. VA appoinments must be made at the Olahoma VA hospital in Oklamoma City. Now for most appointments, you can be seen here in our local clinic, but the appointment MUST be made thru the OKC Hospital. Click here for a full listing of clicnic numbers plus an 800 toll free number to the hospital. Rewmember, when making you appoinment, don't forget to ask if you can be seen locally. 95% of the time, you can, but you HAVE to ask. Just might save you a trip to OKC.


Need a Ride?

If you need transportation to a VA appointment, contact the DAV Transportation Network. Tell them when and where you need to go, and you can probably pick up a ride.
