They have given years of their time and energy as volunteers at The Highground Veteran's Park in Neillsville, WI. Their efforts, along with those of other volunteers, rescued the park from financial difficulties and provided the impetus to expand and improve. |

On September 15, 2011 friends gathered at the Jersey City Vietnam Veteran's Memorial to remember Dave Cline on the 4th anniversary of his death. The VVAW members attending included June Setlovsky, Ann Hirschman and Brian Matarrese. June was the designer of the original memorial stone (with, as she says, "a lot of input from Dave"). The group was small due to weather and horrible traffic but this did not dim our memories of Dave's life and activism. |
