Vietnam Veterans Illuminated Christmas Ornament Collection

In 1973, a long-awaited, peaceful series of flights departed Vietnam. Known as "Operation Homecoming," these flights restored long-lost POWs and servicemen to their country and families, whose enduring hope was finally rewarded. As recognition of their heroism and courage grew, so did respect for all those who had answered our country's call to serve. Now, you can salute their undaunted spirit with a collection of Vietnam veterans glass ornaments. Introducing the Honoring Our Heroes Ornament Collection, available exclusively from The Bradford Exchange. Your collection begins with Issue One, Operation Homecoming, followed by Issue Two, Honor Our Defenders. Soon your collection will continue with Issue Three, Valor, and additional Christmas ornaments, each a separate issue to follow.‡

Each ornament in this collection is handcrafted of delicate, hand-blown Heirloom Glass and finished in rich metallic tones of patriotic red, white and blue. At the center of the ornaments, archival photography recalls American veterans returning home from Vietnam, while raised-relief swirls of glitter further enhance their beauty. Turn a small switch on top of the silver capper and watch as built-in lights shine from within the ornaments. For your convenience, the illumination includes a built-in 24-hour timer that will turn on your ornament at the same time each day. Your ornaments arrive in custom-designed presentation cases, perfect for safekeeping or gift-giving. These meaningful keepsakes are sure to add patriotic spirit to any Christmas decor and they make a thoughtful military gift. Strong demand is anticipated, so don't delay. Order now!
