Commemoration Commemorative Partner, would like to invite everyone to
visit the National Vietnam War Veterans Day display at the Greenville
Public Library during the month of March. On the second floor, the
display will feature personal military items of the late Doug Black.
Doug was a US Army Staff Sargent, E-6 from 1965 to 1967 and his Vietnam
tour was 1966 to 1967. He was in the 196th Light Infantry Brigade
C/Company. He was a recipient of the Bronze Star Medal of Valor and was
