The "Wall" came to my town

With the support and effort of a local church and many volunteers.
First time I've seen it. It was sobering and brought back memories. I was looking for one specific name and found it with the help of a volunteer.
There were many veterans on the site despite the fact that it was raining off and on. Most accompanied by friends and family.

I have been to the moving wall twice, last time it was in a town about half hour away from my house, took me 4 hrs to get there, 50 yrs and my emotions are still running pretty high.

Over the years I have been to see the traveling wall and the wall in DC a number of times. Usually in the company of fellow Marines from my unit. I will be there in DC on Nov 10th and 11th for a reunion. Then next year as well. Each visit has become more important for me, we an’it youngsters any more, friends are leaving this world to join our brothers on the wall.
