Wow, that looks exactly like the Vietnam Memorial on the National Mall in DC. But it's not, or else that helicopter just finished placing that building in the background.


edit: Oh yeah, thanks to all veterans of all types and eras.

It is here in Pensacola Fla. They did a good job. Posted Image Posted Image I guess what really got to me is that this sculpture looks just like my father when he was younger. Scared the heck out of me. LOL Thanks for letting me post this.

Airborne Brother. Thank you to all the Vets.
My older brother and I went to see the moving wall when it came to Vegas back in maybe 97-8. For me it was hard to look at. For my brother, locating the names of his friends, made it all come back to him in a very harsh way. Everyone heals a little differently. I do like seeing a Snake on guard station watching over those men.
