Heroes Homecoming is and event in Fayetteville, NC to honor Vietnam Veterans and to give them the heroes homecoming they deserved, but never received. Communications during Vietnam was not like it is now. There were satellite phones or internet. MARS-Grams and Phone Patches were used thanks to thousands of HAM volunteers. CFARS would like any stories or photos from the era that could be included in a portfolio to document MARS-Grams or Phone Patches.
