REFLECTIONS FROM THE MOVING WALL". I am a monument to a black period in this
countries history.I am the vietnam wall.,composed to two angled granite
walls,inscribed with the names of fifty eight thousand,one hundred thirty
four american men and women who died in hell (that was vietnam) Many people
come to see me. strangely they come mostly in silence-old people,young
people,children,mothers,fathers,widows,and veterans.all for reasons of their
own.they bring gifts,pictures,letters,flowers,poems and cigarettes.the
letters speak of grief and loneliness and regret.they ask forgiveness.they
are an out pouring of pain.the people softly touch names on my face.they
water my grass with tears.then they leave in silence and I hope in peace.for
I am more than two stone walls.I am a thank you from a nation that forgot.I
am a long past due apology.I am healing for wounds too long left untended.I
am a tribute paid to fallen warriors.I AM THE VIETNAM WALL. "america has
forgotten the wars.will she remember her warriors"? You may be gone , BUT
YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN. WE WILL NEVER FORGET.

second cousin but not forgotten
He was my second cousin and I only met him a few times but he was and is in
my heart always. He got to Vietnam before I did and I remember my mother
telling me about the funeral and what a nice young man he was. It's an honor
to be considered part of his family. He was the first SGT to died there from
NJ. Glenn, may God bless your soul and your family. G. Burt Pressey Vietnam
