Did you know there is a national holiday that honors our United States military members who served in the Vietnam War? There is such a holiday. It is the National Vietnam War Veterans Day.  It is celebrated each year on March 29th. The war ran from 1955-1975. Nearly 3 million soldiers served in Vietnam. More than 58,000 Americans were killed and thousands more wounded and/or missing. To pay respects to these brave soldiers who fought there, you can hang a patriotic flag. Most of the flags can be bought in house size and garden size. Some also come in a set of house and garden size. Keep both or maybe share one with someone. To see some appropriate flags for this day, please keep reading.

The flags can also be used for other patriotic holidays. Flag poles are sold separately. All accessories can be seen HERE. Watermarks on photos won't be on flags. 

VIETNAM VETERAN

A perfect flag for a Vietnam veteran to fly on the National Vietnam War Veterans Day is the Vietnam War flag by America Forever shown above. Five helicopters, two  near and three in far sky, fly over soldiers in the jungles of Vietnam. The message along the bottom reads Vietnam Veteran -Vietnam in orange and Veteran in red, white and blue.  Message reads correctly on both sides. This is a one of a kind flag for sure. House size can be seen HERE, garden size HERE and a set seen HERE.

LEST WE FORGET

The image on the Lest We Forget flag above is most likely something that was done many times in war zones to mark the grave of a fallen soldier. His helmet and dog tags hang on top of his rifle. His combat boots on the ground with a small American flag stuck in the ground. House size can be seen HERE, garden size HERE and a set seen. HERE.

 VETERANS SALUTE

Saluting the American flag shows our respect and love of the United States Of America. It has much more meaning to a veteran like the soldier on the Veterans Salute flag above. He stands at attention facing a large flying American flag and saluting. An eagle can be seen in the top right corner. House size can be seen HERE, garden size HEREand a set seen HERE.

PROUD VETERAN

The Proud Veteran flag above is suitable for this holiday and other military holidays. A waving American flag is along the top border. Message in the middle reads PROUD VETERAN with 5 small stars under it.  A patriotic dog tag is along the bottom. House size can be seen HERE, garden size HERE and a set HERE.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

All members of armed services deserve our thanks for protecting our country here and afar. The flag above has white text reading Thank You along the bottom blue border. A silhouette of a soldier is on the right side. He salutes an American flag hanging on the left side. This is another flag that can be used for other patriotic holidays. Message reads correctly on both sides. House can be seen HERE, garden size HERE .

PERSONALIZED

You might be a Vietnam veteran, know a Vietnam veteran or want to honor the memory of one. A personalized flag like the All American Old Wood personalized flag above can be designed by you. You can upload a photo of the veteran to be put on the flag. They are easy to design. Directions are on the item page. House size can be seen HERE, garden size HERE.

AMERICA THANKS YOU

 Another thank you flag is the America Thanks You flag above. Two hands clasp  in a handshake- one military, one civilian. An America flag is the background. Along the bottom in a cursive font is the message Thank you. It reads correctly on both sides. House size can be seen HERE, garden size HERE and a set HERE.

THANK YOU VETERANS

Show your thanks to veterans with the Thank You Veterans flag above.  On a light wood background is the message THANK YOU (blue) VETERANS (red).  A red, white and blue banner is at left bottom corner and top right corner.

PATRIOTIC MEMORIAL

Do you have a family member of friend who didn't return alive from this war or any war? This would be a fitting flag to hang at home or a garden size on a grave.
