Honoring
Wall of Honor for
a New Generation of Heroes
The Howard County Vietnam Veterans Organization (HCVVO) placed a permanent display to show our support and honor a new generation of heroes. The Wall of Honor lists the names and ranks of former and current service members from Howard County, including those who served in Operation Desert Storm, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Afghanistan. Honorary mentions must have been sworn in and completed basic training to qualify for the Wall of Honor.
Contact Dennis Chapman at (765) 453-5688 or email Vveterans@aol.com attn: Chappy to discuss adding a friend or family member’s name to the WOH.
Please gather the following information for Wall of Honor consideration. Also, please mention if the service member gave his/her life during a campaign so HCVVO officials can place a cross before their name:
- Name
- Hometown
- Rank
- Branch of Service
- Campaign
- Awards or Medals
Find us near the junction of State Road 213 and State Road 26, just south of Greentown, Indiana. Or call (765) 628-0297 for more information.
