Vietnam Veterans of America - James Huard Chapter #267

Vietnam Veterans of America - James Huard Chapter #267 Local Chapter of the VVA

Meetings are held on the 4th Wednesday of every month. For more inform They were Vietnam Veterans. They were brothers.

Ted Gagacki, Dave Sexton, Steve Adolph, and Colin Mcgee got together in September of 1986 for the first meeting and the start of Vietnam Veterans Chapter #267. They came together with different ideas, but with a common bond. The word spread throughout the city of Dearborn, to neighboring communities and to local V.V.A Chapters. Dearborn is starting a Chapter! That's all it took. In a very short time they were on their way to becoming the James Huard Chapter #267 of the Vietnam Veterans of America. The chapter was dedicated to and named after fellow Dearborn Air Force Captain James Huard who was missing in action over North Vietnam on July 12, 1972.
