Examining the Myths of the Vietnam War
OPERATIONS ORDER

Registration:

If you are coming from out of town, we recommend you arrive on Sunday, July 25 and plan to depart on Friday, July 30. The room fee covers all five nights. Please read and agree to the information below, when you click on "I agree" you will be transferred to the Registration Form.

Dormitory rooms are limited and it is expected that the supply may NOT meet the demand. Therefore, it is requested that reservations be made as early as possible and will be made on a first come-first reserved basis. These rooms are singles, with separate baths, and cost $350 from Sunday through Thursday night (including conference fees). There are a few doubles (shared occupancy with other guests) available at $290.00 per person for the five nights (including conference fees). We will try to establish a fund to assist our VIP guests, but at this time this has not been accomplished. For persons who are not staying in a dormitory room, the conference fee is $50 for the week or $20 per day for seating in the main auditorium or $10 per day and $20 for the week in the satellite rooms that will be organized by branch of service and unit and connected to the conference by closed circuit TV.
