Original story:

Humana, a leading health and well-being company, is hosting a Vietnam Veterans Pinning and Proclamation Ceremony from 10 a.m. to noon Tuesday, June 19, with Iora Primary Care, 1414 S. 324th St., Suite B207.

This Vietnam Veterans Pinning and Proclamation Ceremony will be a special moment for many Vietnam vets who were not welcomed home in the way veterans are today. The ceremony serves as a public acknowledging the military service and sacrifices made by these veterans, and their families, during the Vietnam War.

Veterans who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces between Nov. 1, 1955, and May 15, 1975, regardless of location, are eligible to participate in the ceremony.

Local Vietnam veterans interested in participating are asked to RSVP to ensure enough pins are available. To RSVP, or for more information, call Humana at 1-800-781-4203 Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
