They hand the info sheet as well as proclamations to the individuals and pin each Veteran. The Museum itself did not choose to become full partners but appreciate what their volunteers are doing on a daily basis.

The Spring Bay American Legion has a weekly jackpot drawing held every Thursday evening. The drawing is attended very well and draws between 100 and 300, mostly veterans and/or family. I am requesting materials (poster and lapel pins) that we can present in recognition of our Vietnam Era veterans in attendance. In the weeks surrounding March 27th, we will specifically ask our Vietnam Era veterans to acknowledge themselves in order to be recognized, and we will continue to recognize additional Vietnam Era veterans throughout the year at various Post events. In addition, I am a Community Health Nurse with the Department of Veterans Affairs, and I continuously present Lapel pins to Vietnam Era veterans who have not received this emblem of our country's gratitude. Please send the amount requested so that I may continue to recognize these hero's.

Regional Vietnam Veterans will be invited to attend the ceremony and tour the exhibits. The event will recognize Admiral Rolands role and support to an the overlooked contribution of the US Coast Guard during the Vietnam War. Admiral Roland was born and raised in Buffalo, NY and attended high school and college before entering the Coast Guard Academy. The event will feature an exhibit of Admiral Roland's life. Vietnam War Roland served as Commandant during the time that the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam (MACV) requested greater U.S. Navy involvement in interdiction of North Vietnamese troops and equipment into South Vietnam under Operation Market Time. The Navy did not have the patrol craft that would serve MACV's purposes and they requested assistance from the U.S. Coast Guard. Roland agreed to supply Point-class cutters and their crews to the operation, fearing that if the U.S. Coast Guard were left out of the Vietnam War that its standing as an armed service would be jeopardized. Coast Guard Squadron One was commissioned on 27 May 1965 and 17 cutters with their crews were assigned to Navy control and sent to Vietnam to assist with the mission of interdicting Communist vessels at sea and preventing personnel and supplies from entering South Vietnam. An additional nine Point-class cutters were assigned to Squadron One on 29 October at the request of MACV. The increased operations in Vietnam during Roland's time as Commandant included buoy tenders to service Vietnamese aids to navigation. U.S. Coast Guard port security personnel were assigned at MACV's request after a visit to Vietnam by Roland in July 1965. There were additional manning requirements for new Loran-C radio stations for radio navigation of ships and aircraft. During the time of the Vietnam preparations he also managed the U.S. Coast Guard's response to the Camarioca boatlift operations in the Straits of Florida. In all, Roland oversaw the increase of over 3,500 additional personnel in 1966

The thing that is additional to this writing, is that now there are pins for Surviving Spouses. I have done two memorial services and need two pins for the widows. I plan to pin Vietnam Veterans on a regular basis that i meet in public. I plan to pin some on June 6th for D-Day celebrations and upcoming Honor Flights with 137 other veterans.

12:00 AM - 12:00 AM
Ponaganset High School

The project was an extraordinary success as students, in cooperation with faculty and national and local veterans' organizations, worked collaboratively to bring the Moving Wall to Ponaganset and serve as visitor guides. Students, parents and community leaders assisted visitors finding names, making rubbings, answering questions about the Vietnam Memorial and the experience. In the weeks prior to the Wall's arrival students conducted historical research, constructed the foundation and developed an extraordinary museum that focused on the Vietnam War. It boasted a large collection of uniforms, letters and artifacts along with 42 panels each exploring a specific episode of Ken Burn's film, The Vietnam War. The Moving Wall itself attracted thousands of residents, veterans and inquisitive visitors to the site. What worked best is that students learned given they were truly engaged in the topic. This project met the two overarching objectives - 1) hosting the Moving Wall and 2) developing an archive of oral histories. The project provided students with an opportunity to explore, debate, discuss, examine, defend, and experiment with concepts and skills they are learning. This multidisciplinary project provided an extraordinary opportunity to deliver in-depth instruction, inspire young minds to become enthusiastic learners, and united the larger community in a single endeavor. One fascinating task that resulted from the project was breaking students into small groups to write, produce and record the radio commercials that aired between August 29th and November 4th, 2018. This resulted in not only creating a hallmark publicity campaign but afforded them the opportunity to work with professionals in the marketing, sales and radio industry. The materials and manufacturing class designed and fabricated an large steel cauldron with the POW / MIA logo that was floated in the pond adjacent to the high school - the "Flames of Freedom".
