Harvard Veterans Alumni Organization

HVAO (www.harvardveterans.org) invites all members of the Harvard community to join its celebration of Veterans Day at 11 a.m. on Friday, November 11, at Memorial Church. In recognition of the return of ROTC to campus, our primary speaker will be Major General John Hyten ’81, who attended the College on an Air Force ROTC scholarship. We will also remember Harvard’s 17 Medal Of Honor recipients, and salute all of the University’s veterans and military personnel, especially those on assignment around the world. We encourage the wearing of dress uniforms for the occasion. Please address questions or comment to harvardveterans@verizon.net
