Vietnam Veterans Recognition Day
Dear Vietnam veteran, and veterans of all
eras,
On
behalf of the United War Veterans Council, producers of the annual NYC Veterans
Day Parade NYC, and other significant events which honors service, it is my
honor to extend this invitation, and request your participation.
Saturday
March 29th, 2014 holds a special day
for the tens of thousands of Vietnam veterans throughout our great city –
namely, the annual Vietnam Veterans Day.
It
was March 29, 1973, that the last 2,500 American combat troops were withdrawn
from the battlefields of Vietnam, and we solemnly commemorate the 41st
anniversary of this day and reflect on its significance for past, present and
future generation.
The
planned activities, attended by many Vietnam veterans throughout the 5
boroughs, takes place in the main lobby of the 55 Water Street building in
lower Manhattan, which is adjacent to the famed Vietnam Veterans Memorial
Plaza, and outdoors on the plaza.
The
summary of activities and that which is most befitting your participation is
attached.
In
light of the meaning of this day to Vietnam veterans, their families and friends
in attendance, we would be honored by your presence.
Welcome
Home and Pass it on!
Looking To Enhance Your Computer Literacy? This Is For You...
To enhance your computer literacy, check out the information below...
1) The family service league will be offering veterans training for a fee of $30 (which will be returned to you if you complete the program). See the flyer below...
2) Everything On - This is an inspired campaign by Mayor Bloomberg to improve computer literacy. It is a great website and has something for everyone. Explore it. Put in your zip code to find out about free training in our area. He states 1 in 5 Americans are not connected to the internet. I have seen surveys that have placed veterans in a high risk pool for computer literacy. Surveys that have been done show 38.9% of veterans do not know how to use the computer and over half do not even have a computer, or know where to begin to find resources to learn.
Get started HERE or click the photo below!
3) Don't forget the website you learned in class. Learn Free is a not for profit organization that has easy tutorials you can use. Challenge yourself to complete one a week and watch your computer skills grow.

If you are interested in volunteering in Brooklyn or Long Island to help your fellow veterans, let me know. I believe that no one can help a veteran as much as a fellow veteran.
