Title: To all Viet Nam vets and others who are interested
Post by: iddee on May 11, 2014, 10:00:11 pm

Vietnam Wall - THIS IS AMAZING!
 
This is really sobering.
 
Click on the link and find the city
you went to high school and look at the names. 
Click on the name and it will give details of the death.
  Vietnam Wall


 
First click on a state.  When it opens, scroll down to the city
and the names will appear. 
Then click on their names.  It should show you a picture of
the person, or at least their bio and medals. 

This really is an amazing web site.  Someone spent a lot of
time and effort to create it. 

I hope that everyone who receives this appreciates what
those who served in Vietnam sacrificed for our country. 
 
The link below is a virtual wall of all those lost during the
Vietnam war with the names, bio's and other information on
our lost heroes.  Those who remember that time frame, or
perhaps lost friends or family can look them up on this site.

Pass the link on to others, as many knew wonderful people
whose names are listed.

Thanks Iddee.  I forwarded this link to my father in law.  He has a book containing all the names but this is much quicker to use.  I have been to the wall twice and left amazed at the amount of names on it both times.

Each and every one of them deserves our humble respect.
There is no greater contribution that any one can give than his/her life.
Each and every one was a world of potential that  has been lost.

Thank you Iddee, for reminding us.
