Harvard Veterans Alumni Organization

HVAO has launched the Harvard Veterans History Project at its website, www.harvardveterans.org. We invite all members of the Harvard community to click on the History Project tab and submit additions, corrections, and comment to harvardveterans@verizon.net. In addition, HVAO will be dedicating the amended Harvard Medal of Honor Memorial, for 17 Harvard recipients, on Veterans Day 11/11/11. Those interested in supporting this endeavor will find additional information on the our website, or may contact HVAO president Thomas P. Reardon ’68 at tom@harvardveterans.org.
