Wall of Honor

A New Generation of Heroes

 

                To show our support and to honor the new generation of heroes,

        the Howard County Vietnam Veterans Organization is placing a new

        permanent display on the Wall of Honor at the Veterans' property

        listing the names of all service members who served, or are presently

        serving in the armed forces of this nation, who have served in Operation

        Desert Storm, in Afghanistan, and/or Operation Iraqi Freedom.  For those who

        who are serving in the armed forces, you must have been sworn in and have

        completed your basic training to qualify to have your name added to our

        Wall of honor.

            If you have a family member, friend, or if you know someone who

        served or is serving in the above listed campaigns or in one of the branches

        of the armed forces of our nation and would like to see their name listed

         on this display, please contact Dave Bouse,   (The Brush)

        at dkbouse@hotmail.com.  Do not contact HCVVO, as Dave

        is the head administrator for this project.  You may also contact Dave

        Bouse by mail at 802 South State Street, #50, South Whitley, IN  46787-

        1486,  or by phone at 260-723-4357 or 260-609-0006.

            Please have the following information at hand: 1) Name, 2) Rank,

        3) Branch of Service, 4) home town and campaign, and in addition,

        if the service member received any medal (Purple Heart, Bronze

        Star, etc.) please note this.

            If a service member gave his/her life during these campaigns,

        this will be noted by the placement of a cross in front of the service

        member's name.

            ****Please note that there is no cost to have the individual

        service member's name added to the display.****

            The Veteran's property is located near the junction of SR 213 and
