I had one tour in Viet Nam 69-70. My daughter surprised me on a fathers day by inviting me to Purdue campus where she was in her Junior year. I thought we were going to lunch but we ended up at the 'moving wall". I had no idea. A time I will never forget with my daughter. Those teenagers in your area sound like wonderful young adults. Your pictures told a great story. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you to the teenagers who all over have shown respect for veterans of the Vietnam war.
At a Vocational school they put on a show in which VVA 1002 received a ten minute standing ovation from the kids who had designed their own outfits--over 100 young women and men. Their show donated over $13K to the national veterans cemetery project we are sponsoring.
Much appreciated

My nephew's name is on the Wall. He was my sister's only child.
I will never forget the anguish the family went through.
Thank you for showing others the respect and honor given to the names on the Wall.

Thank you all! The Vets who have served, families and friends that supported them and everyone who has looked and commented. Our community is extremely proud of them. They have "moved" all of us! It is wonderful to share this with the whole world!
