Vietnam War Veterans Day – March 28th – Date Changed for this Year

Event Description

This commemoration recognizes Vietnam Veterans for their service and Calverton National Cemetery is a commemorative partner. March 29th is designated as National Vietnam War Veterans Day. The date marks the point when the last U.S. troops left South Vietnam, ending America’s direct military involvement in 1973.

Because March 29th is a Sunday – Palm Sunday – A wreath will be laid at Calverton National Cemetery’s Vietnam Memorial on Saturday, March 28th at 10:00 a.m. to honor the service of our Vietnam Veterans. The memorial is on the corner of Princeton Boulevard and Calverton Drive ( the “4-corners” ). Complementary commemorative items will be available. We extend our deepest gratitude to our Vietnam War Veterans for their service and sacrifice.
