If you have ever been to the Vietnam Wall in Washington, DC, I am sure you share my feelings that it is awesome and sobering. Even the traveling Vietnam Wall evokes the same feelings. There are 58,195 names on the wall.
The Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall page provides a way of searching for names on the wall, determining their exact location. If you locate a person of interest, there may be more information, such as a photograph, biographical information and postings from friends and relatives.
The Virtual Wall has links to state and town/city information on those whose names is inscribed on the wall.
Take a virtual tour of the Vietnam Wall at View the Wall. Let your computer explore the names and areas of the wall in your search for a relative or loved on.
They are lost but certainly not forgotten. As I have seen my reflection in the Vietnam Wall, I am thankful for the sacrifices that these men and women gave so that we can all be here to enjoy our freedom. May they rest in peace.
