    The 58th Vietnam Veteran's Commemoration Ceremony, was held on Wednesday, March 29th, 2023, at the USAG Fort Hamilton Commissary, which also commemorates the 50th anniversary of the departure of the last American troops from Vietnam on March 29, 1973.

    The 50th anniversary of the Vietnam War is being recognized nationwide from 28 May 2012 through 11 November 2025 as part of the United States Vietnam War Commemoration. In 2012, President Obama signed a presidential proclamation, designating March 29 as the annual observance of Vietnam War Veterans Day.

    The signing of the proclamation marked the 50th anniversary of the departure of the last American troops from Vietnam — March 29, 1973. The Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act of 2017 was signed into law by President Trump, designating every March 29 as National Vietnam War Veterans Day.
