This is the place for those men and women who have given of themselves in military service to our country. Feel free to discuss anything as it relates to prior (or current) service... and we all thank you for your service!

Names on the Wall , Viet Nam

I have always wanted to visit the wall.
This is a site where you can look up any state and city and see the names of the vets on the wall.
You can also click on the name and it will give you details about the person and where they served and died.
It is very sobering when you can actually see the names of all that came from your state or city.

Neat resource. I visited a long time ago. At night. No one else there. Eerie and powerful experience.

The Traveling Wall was also setup in Tempe, I think years ago. One of my best friends in high school died over there. He was a really good guy and didn't deserve to have his life wasted for that place.
