On 13 March we celebrate the National K9 Birthday and honor military working dogs.

March is Women’s History Month, but the Armed Services Committee would like you to think of it as NFRW Women Veterans Month. NFRW has many female veteran members scattered throughout the clubs. Some of these women are retired, and some only did a few years, but they all volunteered to serve their country.

On March 25, we honor those service members recognized for their heroism with the Medal of Honor. The Medal of Honor is our nation’s highest military decoration for valor and is the only military decoration worn around the neck.

The United States of American Vietnam War Commemoration honors all veterans who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces at any time from November 1, 1955 to May 15, 1975, whether having served in-country or not. Vietnam War Veterans Day was officially established in 2017 by President Donald J. Trump when he signed into law The Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act of 2017 designating in perpetuity March 29 as the day to honor these military veterans.

April is Arab American History Month. Arab Americans have honorably served the United States from the Revolutionary War until the present.
