What have you done to help out Vietnam vets?
As a Vietnam vet myself, I realized years after the war, that one of the main problems facing vets is their invisibility to other vets. In other words, in a room full of people, you cannot tell who is and who is not a veteran of the Vietnam war. This leads to isolation and feelings of handling everything all by yourself with no one around who understands what you are going through. Therefore, I joined Vietnam Veterans of America and began an educational outreach program that was designed to reach out to the vet that was, to borrow a phrase, still in the closet. We set up booths at fairs and flea markets, advertised in papers, distributed bumper stickers etc, all designed to find the veteran that felt that no one else was a vet around him. We were very successful in getting many veterans to come out of the closet and make new friends with fellow veterans.
