Following the Congressional Charter of Vietnam Veterans of America, Wisconsin submitted its Charter following months of organization, debate, and input of Wisconsin VVA members.  Like veterans in many other states, Wisconsin's Vietnam Veterans had difficulties joining other Veteran Service Organizations (e.g., VFW, DAV, Purple Heart, etc.).

Thus, like other states, Wisconsin saw the development and growth of independent Vietnam Veteran organizations some requiring credentials as strong and stronger than those VSOs they were not allowed to join.  Bottom line became years of service, years in country, in theatre, to service in the Era.

The Wisconsin State Council, like its parent organization VVA, has been built one VVA Chapter at a time.  Each VVA Chapter is built one Veteran of the Vietnam era (i.e., means an eligible veteran any part of whose active military, naval, or air service was during the Vietnam Era OPM §307.101 - August 5, 1964 and ending May 7, 1975) at a t

Wisconsin's veterans fought, like other state's to build the organization from the ground up.  Our parent organization VVA, has been built one VVA Chapter at a time.  Each VVA Chapter is built one Veteran of the Vietnam era (i.e., means an eligible veteran any part of whose active military, naval, or air service was during the Vietnam Era OPM §307.101 - August 5, 1964 and ending May 7, 1975) at a time.  Let us not forget the Veteran's family, spouse or surviving spouse, children and adult children, grandchildren, and future progeny.h

The Future of the Wisconsin State Council

The Future of the Wisconsin State Council

Wisconsin has more than 123,000 Vietnam Era Veterans.    Of the 123,000 Vietnam Era Veterans in Wisconsin roughly 2,600 are VVA members,   About two percent of the Vietnam Era Veterans or 2,250 are active in a one of the 26 VVA WSC Chapters.  The WSC legacy will be reaching out to every Vietnam Era Veteran and to expand our body of change

As VVA has said, "Never again will one generation of Americans abandon another."

War Memorial Center Veteran Story Project

War Memorial Center


Unveiled on Veterans Day 1959, the 1,440,000-piece mosaic features Roman numerals representing the commencement and end dates for World War II and the Korean Conflict:

MCMXLI (1941); MCMXLV (1945)
MCML (1950) and MCMLIII (1953)

Vietnam War

The Vietnam War divided America, but, when called to serve, Wisconsin Veterans joined thousands of their countrymen to fight in the jungles of Southeast Asia. They paid an incredible price, which continues to toll decades later.

World War II

From the fields of Europe to the islands of the South Pacific, “The Greatest Generation” helped to liberate millions from tyranny, and fundamentally changed the course of world history. The reflections of these Wisconsin Veterans are a humble reminder that the price of freedom was a cost they were willing to pay for all of us.

Korean War

North and South Korea remain culturally and politically divided by the 38th parallel.  The line dividing stands as a lasting testament to the sacrifices of American and United Nations forces in protecting the south from communist aggression. Wisconsin Veterans were among them.
