I just drove US-95 in Nevada from Laughlin to Las Vegas, today. [View all]

I was appalled. Near Searchlight NV there is a section named Veterans Memorial Highway and I saw the following signage honoring the following Veterans for each section of highway as follows:

WW I Vets
WW II Vets
Korean War Vets
Iraq War Vets
Global War on Terror Vets
Cold War Vets
That's it. Do you see anything wrong?
Hint:
A draft dodger with bones spurs didn't have to go 5x.

My wife and I were appalled. No mention of Vietnam Vets.
