Last year, the town of Cicero joined more than 8,000 communities, businesses and organizations in the Commemorative Partner Program for the 50th Anniversary of the Vietnam War. The Commemorative Partner Program assists in thanking our Vietnam veterans and their families’ right in their own hometowns. There are approximately 7 million Vietnam era veterans in America today with many right here in our community.
