Our Chapter website is about veterans, principally of the Vietnam Era.  In support of VVA's founding principal: "Never again will one generation of veterans abandon another", we are including this page to reach out to veterans of the Global War on Terrorism.  We have added this page to focus on programs either newly implemented or unique to the veterans from the Gulf War.
