	Jenna Lang Dear members of the 11th Armored Cavalry’s Veteran’s of Vietnam and Cambodia, It is truly an honor to be accepted as a recipient of a scholarship for your organization. I have attended a number of reunions with my father, Michael Lang, 37th Med, 69-70. Right from the start, I have felt that I was in the presence of family. No, it’s more than that. I can’t explain in words the bond that you feel for each other. To walk next to any one of you is to be in the shadow of a Hero. It is truly awe-inspiring. A scholarship is, by definition, financial assistance. What makes this truly special is that it came from you, Members of the 11th ACVVC. It is something that I will cherish the rest of my life. I will be starting my second year at the University of Wisconsin, Stout with a major in Graphic Design. I plan to minor in Business Administration. I will try my best to attend this year’s reunion although it comes after I start for the year and the first few weeks are usually hectic. In the event that I cannot attend, rest assured that you will be in my heart. Thank you again for your generosity. Jenna Lang, daughter of Michael Lang, 37th Medical Company, 1969-1970
