SUMMARY:Lynn Swampscott DAV Chapter 64 Annual Vietnam Veterans Breakfast and Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:The Lynn Swampscott DAV Chapter 64 Annual Vietnam Veterans Breakfast and Ceremony is dedicated to honoring local veterans who served during the Vietnam War. The event provides space for recognition\, reflection\, and gratitude\, bringing veterans\, elected officials\, community leaders\, and residents together in a respectful and welcoming setting. The breakfast includes remarks from invited public officials and a veteran guest speaker\, along with time for informal conversation and connection. The event is free and open to the public\, with a focus on ensuring Vietnam veterans feel seen\, valued\, and appreciated for their service\, many of whom returned home without the recognition afforded to other generations. \nThe Vietnam Veterans Breakfast hosted by Lynn Swampscott DAV Chapter 64 supports Salem 400+’s commitment to Commemoration and Recognition by honoring  Salem’s local veterans whose service is part of the region’s lived history. Many Vietnam veterans built their lives in Salem before and after their military service. Their experiences reflect the city’s long relationship with national service\, sacrifice\, and civic responsibility. By publicly acknowledging Vietnam veterans in a community setting\, the breakfast contributes to a more complete and inclusive understanding of Salem’s past and present.  \nThe breakfast aligns with Salem 400+’s goal of Community and Civic Engagement by creating a space where Salem’s residents\, veterans\, local leaders\, and elected officials come together around shared responsibility and respect. It encourages participation across generations and backgrounds and reinforces the idea that civic life includes honoring service and listening to those who have served. The event is intentionally accessible. It reflects the tradition of community gatherings that strengthen connection\, foster dialogue\, and affirm the ongoing commitment to those who have contributed to its civic life. \nRegistration is required\, please register here.
