We will do all we can to prevent another generation from being put through a similar tragedy and we will continue to demand dignity and respect for veterans of all eras. This is real patriotism and we remain true to our mission. Inc Membership in VVAW is open to all people who want to build a veterans' movement that fights for peace and justice. Most of our members are veterans of the Vietnam era, but we welcome veterans of all eras, as well as family members and friends to our ranks. VVAW is a democratic organization.
Chapters decide on local programs and projects under the general guidelines of the national program.
Chapters elect local leadership and representatives to annual national meetings where major organizational decisions are made and national coordinators elected. These coordinators are responsible for the day to day organizational leadership of VVAW and issuing national publications. Inc. They are not affiliated with us in any way. Their objective is to create confusion and deception in order to promote themselves. We urge all people and organizations to beware of this bogus outfit.
