BUSHNELL, Fla. (WFLA) - Bruce Burnham is a historian and Vietnam combat veteran.
During his tour of duty, he earned the Bronze Star for bravery.
Tuesday, Burnham was the keynote speaker in a ceremony to honor others who served.
"That was a very, very difficult time for many of us who just wanted to come back and be normal again," said Burnham.
The gathering at the Florida National Cemetery in Bushnell was small.
Burnham believes it is because many Vietnam vets still shy away from ceremonies and talking about their service in public because of the way they were treated by protestors when they returned from the war.
