I was asked to pass this along to our members....


Hello:

 

I do not know how many Vietnam Veterans are in your Corvette Club.

There is a fellow Corvetter / Veteran in Lexington, N. C. that developed a Vietnam Veteran / Corvette sew on Patch.

 

I have attached a photo of this.

 

He provides this patch to Vietnam Veterans FREE of charge and he does not ask for compensation.

 

I met with him at Corvettes @ Carlisle to pick up my patches.

 

I thought how nice it would be if Vietnam Veterans could display this on their Corvettes showing their service to this country.

 

I discussed and received permission from him that I could have static clings made in honor and memory of our Vietnam Veterans.

 

These static clings are 3" round and go inside of your car window.

 

Should any of your club Vietnam Veterans like any static clings, please have them send me a self addressed/postage paid envelope and I will be glad to provide them. Please provide a note letting me know how many static clings they would like.

 

Should any of your club Vietnam Veterans like any sew on patches they only need to e-mail Charles at Charlie@carols62.com

 

Tell him how many sew on patches they would like and give him their mailing address.

 

 

THEY BOTH ARE FREE

 

Thank You

That is a wonderful thing that you guys are doing I will have to get with some local vette owners and send it an order.

I also think that just because it is free does not mean you should take it for free.  

My old boss was grooming me to take his place and used to keep telling me "Just because you can does not mean you should".

There are two things here.  One is the static cling emblem that you send a self addressed envelop for and I haven't request that yet.

The other is the patch, which you send an email request for.  When you receive them they are free, but there will be a note telling you they accepts donations and where to send.
 
And your right, a great thing for us Vietnam Vet Vette owners, that we should support and help out if we can.

If the provided email address above, here is the Corvette Forum  that addresses both items.  For the Patch you can click on his member name and send him a email and he'll send you a Patch(s)
