Vietnam Veterans Ch. 278 fish fry

The October meeting of the Texarkana Chapter of Vietnam Veterans of America was held today in conjunction with a fish fry at the American Legion Post. Staff and volunteers from the VA clinic and hospital from Texarkana and Shreveport were in attendance, along with volunteer drivers of the DAV van (makes five trips weekly to Shreveport and back as a service to veterans). The "Leave no Veteran Behind" program is a hot topic both locally and statewide as the VA health care budget gap has increased in recent years. Here's the local chapter's site.
