The reverse is inscribed with the founding principal of the VVA and the distinctive Oregon VVA emblem serves as a reminder that we continue to serve veterans. The wreath symbolizes the excellence of our cause, in insuring that the "Honorable Service and Sacrifice" made by the "newer" Generations of Veterans is Never Forgotten.

Vietnam Veterans of America was founded on the principal that “NEVER AGAIN WILL ONE GENERATION OF VETERANS ABANDON ANOTHER”.
We, as Vietnam Veterans, have a unique opportunity to live up to this principal. We can recognize the “Honorable Service and Sacrifice” of a “ANOTHER” generation of veterans in a fashion that was never afforded us upon our return from Vietnam.
The “Freedom Medallion is designed to be presented to returning Oregon veterans of the Afghanistan and Iraq Wars, by Oregon VVA Chapters and their members.
Only a Vietnam Veteran may present this “Freedom Medallion” to another veteran.
This medallion may be awarded to veterans of any generation for service in any war.
The medallion is 2 inches in diameter and weighs 2 oz.
This stunning medallion is now available for a very affordable price of $12.50, delivered. This is a fund raiser for the Oregon VVA Chapter 271, of Salem.
