WELCOME HOME VIETNAM VETERANS DAY-MARCH 30
In 2000, I began a campaign to welcome home our Vietnam Veterans. I felt the need to say thank you, God bless you and welcome home.
Last May 15 2004, my team and I left Whittier, Ca. on bicycles to go to Washington, D.C. to ask Congress and the President of the United States to create a day of recogniton for our Vietnam Veterans.
Rep. Linda T. Sanchez has introduced H-Res 30 in the House, which calls for March 30, of every year to be recognized as Welcome Home Vietnam Vetrans Day. Now, there are dozens of co-sponsors to the bill, including Reps. Grace Napolitano and Loretta Sanchez, also from California. We need state reps from other states to pick up the ball and support the bill.
I've spent five years and thousands of dollars (most of which I still owe), countless hours telephoning, faxing, e-mailing, letter-writing, lobbying, fund- raising and pushing those who had the power to make this happen.
This bill, when passed, will show all our Veterans that no matter how long it takes, America's warriors are not forgotton.
People who really care about Vietnam Veterans and about how they were ignored after returning home should call their representatives and ask them why their names are not on the bill as co-sponsors? This bill does not have political barriers, it does not ask for money, time off from work, parades or $50 bucks off at Wal-mart; all it says is that it is time to say thank you, God bless and welcome home to our Vietnam Veterans. My question is where is the name of your state rep? Why don't they support this bill? Call them today and ask them.
We need to do it now before another Vietnam Veteran dies without hearing those words of gratitiude from a grateful nation.
I have set up a Web site at www.whvvd.org On that site I have placed links to government offices, including the White House, Congress and the Senate.
This March 30 has passed just like they have for the past four decades, and no one cared or showed any regard. The Vietnam Veteran, very much forgotton like the Korean War Veteran, will stand proudly on the sidelines waiting for America to recognize her true heroes.
As founder and team coordinator for Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day, I urge to to please help me in this "solo" campaign. I know I can't do it alone, I need your help, in every state of Union. I ask this as one American and as one Veteran to another. This is not just about the Vietnam Veteran. This is about America doing what is right. Please take the time today to say hello, thank you and God bless to all Veterans.
It all began here in Whittier; Ca. help me take it to the rest of the nation.

Looking for anyone who knew Wayne Szulkowsi from Chicago. I know he was in the 101st and the 327. I believe he served with 2nd battalion, but I'm not sure. He was with the original combat troops to arrive in Vietnam in 1965. I'm basically looking for the unit he did serve with.
