Addison Baumgartner My name is Addison Baumgartner and I am the granddaughter of D Clark Thomas, who proudly served with the 11th Armored Cavalry in Vietnam. It is an honor to be selected as one of the recipients of this year's 11th ACVVC Scholarships, in memory of Norman Cunningham, who gave his life in service to his country. I would like to thank all of those that donated towards the scholarship fund, as well as the committee members for selecting me for this prestigious award. This scholarship is special to me because it not only honors my grandfather's service but so many others as well. Growing up, my grandfather was often my special guest at my school's Veterans Day ceremonies. He always instilled in me the importance of respecting our country and those that served in the military. This fall I will be attending Northwest Missouri State University. This scholarship will provide very needed financial assistance as I pursue my dream of obtaining a degree in Elementary Education. Thank you again for this generous scholarship and recognition. Addison Baumgartner, granddaughter of D.

Walker Betzer Being fortunate enough to be awarded this scholarship has meant a lot to my family and me. Since my grandfather served in Vietnam, thus allowing me the opportunity to apply for this scholarship, he feels as if all his hard work and service has given me opportunities that would not be present otherwise. I could not be prouder to receive this scholarship, as it has enabled me to pursue a further academic future, all while shining a spotlight on all of the hard work my grandfather put in while serving in Vietnam. Being awarded the 11th Armored Cavalry’s Veterans of Vietnam & Cambodia scholarship has been a blessing for me as well as my family and shown that hard work can pay off for generations.

Alec Darrow Receiving a scholarship from the 11th Armored Cavalry's Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia is a great honor and I cannot thank you all enough. My grandfather Daniel "Flash" Stephan was my role model growing up. He served with his "Cav Family" from '66 to '67 in M Company and considered you all heroes and family. He earned a Purple Heart and Bronze Star while serving. He would say it was his duty and honor to be among his fellow soldiers. My grandfather taught me the true meaning of honor and responsibility. I hope to carry these traits forward in his memory, and in honor of the 11th Armored Cavalry's Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia. Being given this scholarship will help me in funding my college education. I hope to pursue a career in helping those who need it most. I sincerely thank you so much for this generous gift. I plan to carry out its' distinction now and after I have completed my higher education.

Mason Davenport First of
all, I would like to say thank you to all members of the 11th Armored Cavalry
for your service and for the opportunity you've given me to receive this
scholarship. This scholarship means a lot to me as a student as it will be used

getting my degree in civil engineering. It will help me pay for things such as
books, courses, or a computer that will aid me on my path towards my degree.
This scholarship will truly go a long way in my life and for that I am very
thankful for this award and for your sacrifice. God Bless. |

my family in my continuing education, and I am so lucky to be able to honor my
grandfather, Robert Spangler, and his service through it. He is one of the most
caring and generous people I have ever met, and he lives to help others. He has
always been such a positive force and role model in my life, and I am so honored
to be able to celebrate that with this scholarship. |

Olivia Hacker When I received the news that I was awarded the scholarship in the memory of Douglas Hill, I was humbled and grateful to be the recipient of this scholarship. Both my family and I cried and felt that my grandfather Richard E. Daly played a part in this. While growing up I've always been told the stories of my grandfathers, and great grandfathers and how they fought for our freedom.

While I've never met him, my parents, grandparents and countless other family members have kept his memory alive for me Thank you again to the 11th Armored Cavalry Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia for your generosity. This scholarship will help me pursue my degree in pre-med at the University of Vermont. I hope to be a doctor someday. Veterans will always hold a place in my heart.

Autumn Kloth I am very honored to be a scholarship recipient of the 11th Armored Cavalry’s Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia. I am even more grateful to share this honor with my grandfather, David Taylor, who is a Vietnam veteran. When Vietnam veterans came home from the war, they were not celebrated nor honored for their service. Because of the way they were poorly treated, my grandfather rarely told anyone about the hardships he experienced, which affected his daily life. It is a joy now to see such honor and recognition given to Vietnam and Cambodian veterans along with their families. This scholarship will greatly help me alleviate the expenses of attending Florida State University, and I hope to honor the sacrifices of all veterans by pursuing a higher education.

Sophia Sutherland I am extremely grateful and honored to have received this scholarship from the 11th Armored Calvary Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia.

Leslie Thompson I am honored to have been considered and accepted for the 11th Armored Cavalry’s Veterans of Vietnam and Cambodia scholarship. This scholarship will allow me to plan ahead for and obtain a Bachelor of Science Degree with major in space robotics engineering. I am proud to have served my country and even more proud of the service my father and his brethren provided for The United States of America during the Vietnam War. Without the sacrifices all of you made I don't believe we would have had a safe and secure country to enjoy living in from then to now. The privilege of attending a university has taught me that nothing can be achieved without both determination and patience, which is something I had forgotten sometime after exiting our Military. It feels refreshing to rekindle that feeling of belonging, and that feeling of self-worth. Out of all the people who were eligible for this scholarship, I feel blessed to have received it. You have given me the opportunity to continue to apply myself toward the future, to feel better about myself and my mental health, and I am forever in your debt. Leslie Thompson, son of Michael Thompson, G Troop 2/11, 1969-1970 This scholarship awarded in honor of Ivan Lorenza Vincent Jr, G Troop 2/11, KIA August 24, 1968 |

Owen Wright I am deeply honored and grateful to have received the 11th ACVVC scholarship award, and it means a lot to me both in my education and for my grandfather. My grandfather is one of my greatest supporters, and this scholarship being so closely connected to him and its assistance to its future just compounds this. I am currently pursuing a Mechanical Engineering degree at Temple University, and I look forward to honoring the 11th ACVVC through my education and hard work in order to better the world. This scholarship will greatly assist me in these goals.

Zaragoza I am deeply honored to have been a recipient of the 11th ACVVC scholarship fund. This scholarship means so much to me in so many ways. However, if I had to pick one, I would have to say this scholarship is most meaningful to me because it goes to recognize those who took part in the Vietnam War, including my grandfather. My grandfather, who was part of the 11th ACVVC during the war, is a great man, and the stories he has to tell never cease to amaze me and make me realize just how the war really was from a personal perspective. He has always been a loving and hardworking person, and I am happy to have been able to learn many things from him. In the end, this scholarship goes to recognize not only our veterans still alive today but those that were lost too. In conclusion, this scholarship is a way to never forget the sacrifices and lives lost during those many days at war. Alexis Zaragoza, granddaughter of Stephen Zaragoza, G Troop 2/11, 1969-1970 This scholarship awarded in honor of Michael Henry Lynch, D Company 1/11, KIA May 14, 1968 |
