Mike,
I'm safely ensconced in my personal cave. Luckily, nobody can see this old man crying. I've got 4 classmates names on the wall. I cry for them and their families every time I see The Wall. And it is STILL not enough!

I know how you feel, Craig. Too many of my friends and troops are on that wall.

An excellent set. I visited the moving wall in my area years ago. And yes, I cried.
I appreciate you generous words, Bob, and know how you feel.

As a Vietnam era veteran who never went there (thanks to God), I thank you for posting. Some very touching and beautiful photos. My half-sister's second husband's name is on that wall. I have it on my bucket list to visit and touch his name. Your post and the photos have put a lump in my throat for all we lost there.
I appreciate your visit and kind words. Be sure to make it there, pictures do not convey what is there to feel.

Good photos, regardless of the weather you did well. I have seen the wall from a distance, but did not get within reading range. Even though I was out of the army before Vietnam became a US war, there were men I had served with who may have been on the wall and I did not want to see their names.
Also: Please don't refer to things as a "zoo" when situations become crazy. A good zoo is well run with professional staffs and well cared for animals.

thanks, great set and as always very emotional, I prefer to visit very early or very late (small or O crowds), some times when you arrive early there are groups washing the Wall and you can help and the water from the hoses hides the tears.
