The official plaques for the Lone Sailor Statue in Guam were unveiled during a ceremony at the Ricardo J. Bordallo Governor's Complex in Hagåtña April 30.

Though the statue's initial unveiling took place December 2018, members of the local and military communities gathered, once more, to honor the Lone Sailor - a symbol of the significant relationship between the Navy, the sea services, Guam, and the thousands of Vietnamese citizens who found refuge on the island during Operation New Life in the ending days of the Vietnam War.
