All Vietnam Veterans are invited to join us and meet COL Bill Reeder USA (Ret.), MAJ Joe Crecca USAF (Ret.) and CAPT Bill Wilson USAF. The Luncheon is being held at the Elks Lodge, NE Ernst St. Oak Harbor. Social time begins at 1130. Buffet lunch will be served. Cost is $20 pay at the door. Please RSVP to rsvp@pnwnam.org.
