>heritage of liberty and Freedom. Lets also
>remember three of our own NABV members (James
>Worley, Clinton Grimsley and Eugene Huggins).
>James an Army Decorated First Sgt. And Vietnam
>Veteran was one of our founding members and who
>provided our original seed money. Clinton
>Grimsley, a board member who not only fought in
>Vietnam, but fought Throat Cancer just as
>bravely. Eugene Huggins our First Vice President
>who died from complications of Agent Orange
>which he was exposed to during his service in
>Vietnam. These are just a few of the thousands

>ultimate price for our freedom, along with their
>families who still are experiencing their loss. Let us never forget them!
