Harry Beyne III, Co-author of "The Day We Finally Came Back from Vietnam"
"10 Years Late", was the headline covering the 1985 parade in New York City. But as these authors (Roger McGill and Harold Beyne III) and Tom Stack saw it, this parade really was the preface for the main event: the Chicago WELCOME HOME Vietnam Veterans parade on Friday, June 13, 1986. From a parade of 25,000 veterans in New York, this parade grew to a massive Chicago marching crowd of Vietnam Veterans with estimates ranging from 176,000 to more than 200,000. The book, "The Day We Finally Came Back from Vietnam: The Untold Story of Chicago's WELCOME HOME Parade" is available on Amazon on April 20, 2023. Check it out and let us know what you think.
