Today 50 years ago began #OperationHomecoming , where almost 600 Vietnam POW’s began to return home. They had their whole lives ahead of them. Never forget to welcome a Vietnam vet home - they’re still with us, still remember, still love the nation they served & are easily found.
Keep saving the kids!
