DATE: Monday, May 28, 2012

START TIME: 1:00 pm

CLOSING: 3:30 pm

Unlike previous years, formal invitations are being sent by the Secretary of Defense to more than 2,000 Vietnam Veterans, Gold Star family members, wounded veterans, military and other local hospitals, as well as Congressional Vietnam veterans and distinguished guests. Veteran Service Organizations that have an association with the Vietnam War, each branch of the Military Service, as well as the Office of the Secretary of Veterans Affairs and other governmental leaders have been asked to provide lists of Veterans to be invited.

It will be impossible to accommodate everyone who wishes to be present at the Memorial for the Memorial Day ceremony, but we are making arrangements to provide an additional viewing area on the knoll just to the East of the Wall, and within line of sight of the event. In addition, attendees will be able to see the events unfold on large video screens at the site.

Security will be very restrictive. All attendees, in either viewing area, will be required to pass through magnetometers. There will be additional restrictions on items that can be carried into the viewing areas. Bottled water or food, knives, weapons of any type, sharp metal objects, such as nail files, etc. will not be allowed past the security screening points.

Attendees will need to have a photo ID to pass through security.

Invited dignitaries include the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of Joint Chiefs, the Joint Chiefs, Senator Chuck Hagel (a Vietnam veteran) as well as the Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Secretary of the Interior and other cabinet officials. Award winning actor and Vietnam era Army veteran, Tom Selleck, will serve as Master of Ceremonies. He will be joined by the Marine Corps Band and the Army Chorus. Other VIP guests include Medal of Honor recipients, General Barry R. McCaffrey, Jan Scruggs of the Vietnam Veteran’s Memorial Fund and others who are or have relatives who are Vietnam veterans.

Veteran Service Organizations, Gold Star family members and military leaders will lay wreaths during the ceremony.. Taps and a moment of silence will follow the wreath laying. A fly-over by military aircraft will culminate this tribute to America’s Vietnam veterans and begin a series of nationwide commemorations.

The objective of this special ceremony in simple:

TO THANK AND HONOR THE SERVICE, VALOR AND SACRIFICE OF VIETNAM VETERANS AND THEIR FAMILIES.

The conclusion of active operations in the Middle East calls into

question the ongoing threat from radical extremism and the other threats

faced by the United States. Due to the heightened intensity of threats

the Coast Guard has taken steps to secure safety and has allocated

$10.34 billion for FY2012 towards modernization and increasing maritime

security capabilities. It’s an important time for the maritime community

to accurately assess its priorities and plan for both existing and

emerging challenges.

The 10th Annual Maritime Homeland Security Summit will bring together

all relevant stakeholders to discuss the most pressing issues facing the

maritime community, from efforts to build new partnerships to

modernizing security capabilities. Departmental policy makers, uniformed

service leaders, law enforcement and industry partners will gather in

Norfolk to network, share best practices and explore potential paths to

fortifying the United States’ maritime security.

*** Maritime Homeland Security Summit 2012

30 April, 2012 – 2 May, 2012
Norfolk, VA, United States

The conclusion of active operations in the Middle East calls into question the ongoing threat from radical extremism and the other threats faced by the United States. Due to the heightened intensity of threats the Coast Guard has taken steps to secure safety and has allocated $10.34 billion for FY2012 towards modernization and increasing maritime security capabilities. It’s an important time for the maritime community to accurately assess its priorities and plan for both existing and emerging challenges.

The 10th Annual Maritime Homeland Security Summit will bring together all relevant stakeholders to discuss the most pressing issues facing the maritime community, from efforts to build new partnerships to modernizing security capabilities. Departmental policy makers, uniformed service leaders, law enforcement and industry partners will gather in Norfolk to network, share best practices and explore potential paths to fortifying the United States’ maritime security.
