Gov. Phil Murphy also made an appearance to speak about the importance of celebrating veterans.
"To all who have proudly dawned the uniforms of service, answered one of the highest callings as American citizens and protected the ideals and values of the nation of our free society, we say once again- thank you,” he said.
The New Jersey Vietnam Veterans' Memorial Foundation encourages the community to visit the Vietnam Era Museum. It is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday.
