American Veterans Traveling Tribute http://www.avtt.org— The American Veterans Traveling Tribute is an unforgettable exhibit that pays tribute to the men and women who served in the U.S. Armed Forces. The Vietnam War is of major importance to the Tribute and the 4/5 scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial is its visual centerpiece, standing 8 feet high at the apex and spanning 378 feet! (Note: The "Wall" is structurally accurate and name listings are updated when changes are made to the Memorial in Washington, D.C.)

Bamboo Bridge — A growing, international community of veterans of Vietnam and other conflicts has found support, recognition and healing through a weekend training program called The Bamboo Bridge, supported by the nonprofit Bamboo Bridge Foundation and voluntary donations. While many veterans' gatherings can devolve into "top this" storytelling, the Bamboo Bridge weekend provides a safe space in which memories can be heard and understood, losses can be mourned, and traumas can be released. The participants, men and women, experience a homecoming of honor and dignity. Originally founded for Vietnam Veterans, The Bamboo Bridge training is now open to combat veterans of any war. Weekends are hosted in Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, North and South Carolina, New York, and Maryland. Because the Bamboo Bridge leaders believe vets have already paid the price, no fee is charged to attend. www.vetsbridge.org or http://www.execpc.com/~vetsbrdg, or email Christan Kramer at VetsBrdg@ExecPC.Com or Bud Leazenby at leazenby@qserve.net .
