Honoring Vietnam Veterans
At the Towanda American Legion, I joined the office of Sen. Pat Toomey to host a ceremony honoring our Vietnam veterans. We had a great turnout, with the legion being packed to capacity! It was a special privilege to be able to honor these veterans, which was long overdue. Each veteran received a Vietnam War commemorative pin and a certificate of appreciation thanking them for their service. At the Towanda American Legion, I joined the office of Sen.

Rep. Tina Pickett, in the center, thanks Paul Yoachim for his service as he comes through the Vietnam Veterans Pinning Ceremony line to receive the Vietnam War commemorative pin. Yoachim was in Vietnam from 1967 to 1968. He served during the Tet Offensive in Vietnam with the United States Army 1st Infantry Division. He was wounded and still has shrapnel in his body. He is the recipient of the Purple Heart, Bronze Star and Combat Infantry Badge.

Tina Pickett; Vietnam veteran Richard Powell, a Purple Heart and Bronze Star recipient for his injuries; George "Rusty" Eddy Jr., who served during the Vietnam War; Ruth Clearwater, a member of the Quilt of Valor Foundation of Bradford County; and state Rep. Clint Owlet. Richard Powell and George Eddy Jr. both received the Quilt of Valor. Missing from the picture is Duane Walker, a Vietnam veteran with two tours in Vietnam, who also received the Quilt of Valor.
