Vietnam War art in Ramapo Town Hall

If you’re voting in Ramapo Town Hall today, or just passing through in the next few days, check out this painting by “Doc” Bernie Duff, a veteran who moved to Vietnam and paints scenes from the war. He donated it to the Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 333 (Rockland County) in 2005, and the VVA has loaned it to the Town of Ramapo for display in the Council Room.
This painting, “Hot LZ,” contains sand from China Beach, mixed in with the paint.
I’m meeting Duff later this week, so let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to ask him…
