AUGUSTA – The Travis Mills Foundation annual Vietnam Era Veterans Breakfast will be 9 a.m. Wednesday, March 29, at the Augusta Civic Center, 76 Community Drive.
The “Welcome Home” event is free, but veterans must sign up for tickets at give.classy.org/vietnamveteranbreakfast. Each veteran can bring one guest for free.
Vietnam-era veterans hold a special place in the heart of U.S. Army SSG (Ret.) Travis Mills. “This is your day,” he said at last year’s event. “I have all my staff here from the Foundation putting this on and they’re all here for you. This day is for you. You deserved it and didn’t get it and I’m going to make sure that we all acknowledge you for every year to come for all that you have done.”
In addition to breakfast, the event will include military presentations along with a program by Mills.
“Most of us know a Vietnam era veteran,” said Heather Hemphill, executive director of the Travis Mills Foundation. “It’s important that we recognize their service, which was during a difficult time in our country’s history. Let us each reach out to that Vietnam era veteran in our lives to invite them to this event in their honor.”
