As a Vietnam veteran, I would just like to express my gratitude to all the many folks, both tourists and locals, who turned out for our annual parade through Waikiki on March 29, Vietnam Veterans Day.
We all certainly appreciated the outpouring of aloha, and it was truly a memorable experience.
As a friend walking along with me through the tunnel of cheers and waving flags recalled, “You know when I came back from Vietnam in 1970, I got booed. What a difference!”
