Every time I've been to the Wall it's been in the day time.
Big mistake, should have gone at night......This shot is outstanding! Thanks for sharing!
Outstanding shot. As a Vietnam Veterans, thanks for sharing. Two weekends ago, my brother and I went to the 50th Commemoration of the Vietnam War. This event was held at the National Training Center, Fort Irwin, CA.

I have to agree. Even if you don't know the significance of the wall, your image is moving.
So many have so many good thoughts I just can't add too them. I spent my time freezing in Korea. Speaking on technical terms, I would like to have those three lights on the side turned off. This is a "very moving" picture but not as much when you are standing there. Love it.
Thank You For Your Service!

Can't they be Photoshopped out?

Glad you are here with us, my dad however, got it from Agent Orange. I was too young for Vietnam, but did my time in the USMC
Excellent photo,Semper Fi Brother.
Colonel Pete Peterson, USAF pilot shot down by enemy fire in Vietnam, spent 6 years as a prisoner of war by the North Vietnamese Army. He returned to Hanoi to a much different country. He was first Ambassador from 1997-2001. Twenty two years after the war ended. He served under the Clinton Administration. Vietnam Vets did not protest this appointment. He wanted to mend fences. He is now a philanthropist and 80 years old now.
Totally awesome!;)😍
Like all the others, I have to say that that is one 'shot' of the wall I was not expecting.
I have visited it a couple of times but, too, only during sunny daylight.
I was in 'nam '67-'68 and it always gnaws at me when I recall coming home and having to
travel thru various airports on the way home and some of the 'welcome backs' we received.
My son is in Afghanistan now, and I look forward to 'being there' when his unit returns.
Again, thanks fo the posting of a great picture . . .
Wow, Mark! A different perspective for sure, and a very excellent perspective! This is just a fantastic shot!
An absolutely beautiful shot of a memorial honoring so many good people.
