The Poster Series helps Teachers and Students recognize and reflect upon the U.S. veterans’ experience, without debating the rightness or wrongness of the war. Instead, they feature a more personal engagement with veterans’ stories and provide some historical foundation to better understand their experiences, their collective contributions and their advancements to STEM, Medicine, Society, Political Sciences, and much, much more.

The Teachers Toolkit provides a comprehensive packet of materials that accompany and enhance the learning experience of the poster series. The Teachers Toolkit additionally contains a plethora of resources that educators can use inside and outside the classroom to support the learning experience and efforts to thank and honor Vietnam veterans and their families. These resources include website links, recommended activities, books, and films, and many other materials that accommodate all ages from elementary schools and after-school programs to college-level students.

All folders are in zip format, with one click automatic download.

for it is the soldier who must suffer

and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war."
