Description

The Vietnam Veteran's Memorial is made up of two polished black granite walls. It records the names of 58,209 soldiers killed in the Vietnam War. The tree-ringed Women in Vietnam Memorial is nearby, showing female soldiers supporting a fallen man. Notes, medals, and mementos left by survivors, relatives and friends are the most touching remembrances.
