Came to our area a few years back. It's a pretty awesome sight.

I've seen that, as well as the one in DC. That's quite an accomplishment. I found a friend's name on it. Very sad.

I saw a smaller version in Anchorage about 85 or 86. A local taped a photo of a loved one who was killed. the note said he was killed in a water buffalo stampede.

I am what's called a Vietnam era vet - I was in the Army but didn't go to SEA... just lucky I guess. Thank you for your service.

I'm green Jerry... I've wanted to see the real wall for a long time but getting to DC now... well that's another story. Thanks for watching.

I've not been able to see the DC wall either, not because of emotion rather $$. From the photos I've seen here and elsewhere it's just beautiful and will make the hair at the back of your neck dance... I wouldn't doubt that a bit. Good luck.

We have had the Viet Nam "Moving Wall" at our VFW (NC VFW Memorial Post 2423, Indian Trail, NC) twice in the last 10 years. Had a very good turn out each time by Veterans and Citizens.

Thank you Jimmy. As a Vietnam Combat Infantryman suffering from PTSD it is always humbling to see this. The one in DC is so much harder to observe.

Having been to the one in DC. I wish everyone could see it. I kind of saw it thru tears, I only stand about 2 minutes and had to leave. Maybe someday I will get to go back and stay a while this time.

Thank you for your service sir. As a Vietnam era vet, I was in Germany, I so appreciate you guys and all you tried to do with that little sliver of a country. Looking back it makes no real sense at all but apparently Eisenhower thought it did when he signed SEATO. Thank you again sir.
