N.J. HCV VETS TO BE HONORED POSTHUMOUSLY


Member Kiedove sends us this to begin our Memorial Day remembrances. I want to thank her profusely for sending us this.  It’s the first time I’ve seen something like it. I’ll try to induce some of the members locally to pester our Governor to do the same. Just because we didn’t bite the red clay in 1970 doesn’t make us any less a casualty of that conflict. Between AO and HCV, our numbers are thinning at a record pace. It seems only fitting that all states and the government should recognize that we are casualties and simply haven’t conveniently fallen down and died yet.

    I emailed the Director (About/Staff) of the sponsoring organization to thank them for raising awareness about HCV and the Vietnam Veteran in this respectful way.
    But my gosh, they have really gotten a lot of support from the NJ community for their educational programs. Definitely an influential and positive group.
