"The Wall That Heals"
The Wall That Heals, organized by the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund, has been traveling communities since it’s unveiling in 1996. The wall was built to spread the Memorial’s healing legacy to millions. The Wall was displayed more than 700 times throughout the nation.

Thank You, Veterans and Welcome Home!
