Vietnam vets welcomed home at Ft. Campbell
Some Vietnam veterans finally got their welcome home at Fort Campbell yesterday according to the Washington Times;
Maj. Gen. John F. Campbell, commanding general of the 101st Airborne Division, said the time had come to do the right thing.
“We realize that many of you did not receive the honorable homecoming you deserved as American heroes,” Campbell said. “We wanted to make sure that another day doesn’t go by when you did not have a proper welcome home.”
I’ve been welcoming them home for years, I’m glad the Army is doing the same thing finally.
