Vietnam Veterans of America is presenting the 25th Anniversary Parade in celebration of the dedication of "The Wall‚" on Saturday, November 10, 2007. If you were there in 1982, you know why you should be back for the 25th. If you weren't there in '82, then this is the one to attend, because it is being held by us, for us.
