Bill > HCR003

This concurrent resolution honors and expresses gratitude to Vietnam War veterans who served between November 1, 1955, and May 15, 1975, acknowledging their significant contributions and sacrifices during one of the nation's longest and most complex conflicts. The resolution recognizes that these service members were often unfairly criticized upon returning home, despite heroically answering the call to serve in various capacities, including combat, support roles, and military training across different global locations. By highlighting the war's duration, from the first American soldiers arriving in the 1950s to the fall of Saigon in 1975, the resolution emphasizes the prolonged nature of the conflict and the profound impact it had on military personnel and their families. The Utah Legislature, with the Governor's concurrence, formally pays tribute to these veterans, affirming their patriotism, courage, and selfless service, and acknowledging the enduring debt of gratitude owed to them by the nation and state.
