Thank you Vets!

Vietnam Vets 3rd 155/175MM Gun Btry (SP). Thank you!


September was a great month for Vietnam Vets 3rd 155/175MM Gun Btry (SP).

This was the sixth reunion of this esteemed outfit. Mr. Walter Bradley, a veteran of Vietnam era and a stalwart member of this great Battery.  Mr Bradley made all these memorabilia bracelets for his fellow vets. He has influenced us to introduce the Vietnam era cord that will be featured in our mix for 2017. Thanks Walter from us at Pepperell Braiding Company and thanks for your dedicated service to this country.

Below are some photos from Walter's time serving our country.
