      Honoring Our Vietnam

      Veterans

        Once again, it is an honor for
      my agency to participate in
      the United States of America
      Vietnam War Commemoration
      program. Over the past several
      years, we have honored
      hundreds of Palm Beach County
      Vietnam veterans  with a special
      commemorative lapel pin as my way of saying “thank
      you” for their service and sacrifice. This is the fourth
      year we have participated in this special partnership with   Pictured left is A.J. Balram and right is Michelle Harris

      Vehicles (FLHSMV). Our office is honored to provide
      one pin to Palm Beach County veterans or their families
      in honor of their military service in Vietnam.
        This is the official pin of the United States of America
      Vietnam War Commemoration, authorized by Congress
      to recognize the 50th anniversary of the Vietnam War. It’s
      a heartfelt tribute to those who served, and a way to say,
      “thank you,” for their service to our country.
        Requests can be made by completing a request form
      online at www.pbctax.com. Your pin, along with my                          Jupiter Beach Specialists
      personal letter of appreciation will be mailed directly to
      you. These commemorative pins are available now through
      Nov. 30. Veterans are only eligible to receive one pin;
      therefore, if you previously received your commemorative   sold
      pin, no need to request again. You must be a Palm Beach
      County resident to participate. We thank you for your
      service and we are most honored to recognize you with
      this special commemorative lapel pin.
