Tom Sherwood is planning a party and inviting Vietnam veterans and their partners to his Toms Retreat estate on March 29, the National Vietnam War Veterans Day. A post on the VFW Post 493 Facebook page reads: “We at Toms Retreat are inviting all Vietnam Veterans (and their spouses) for a day of food, fun and music. Please arrive by 12 pm sharp for the flag raising. We will promptly march to the mess area for chow. Band begins at 3 p.m. Refreshments will be served.
