    Very hard to find early veterans group pinback button opposed to the War In Vietnam. One of the early demonstrations against the war in Vietnam held in New York City. Organized by the Fifth Avenue Peace Parade Committee the march attracted 25,000 protesters. Among them were World War II veterans who were greeted with catcalled words of "coward" and "traitor".
