Disabled American Veterans - Bill Kinnard Chapter #92 Victorville, Ca.
Bill Kinnard Chapter #92 was established on Sept 8th, 1975, by local Veterans of the Victorville, California, High Desert area. Those original 25 members decided to name our Chapter after Bill Kinnard, a 20-year-old man who perished on the battlefield of the Vietnam War in 1967. Bill bravely paid the ultimate price for our country’s freedoms while serving in the Army’s 101st Airborne Infantry Division.
