The Vietnam War lasted from 1955-1975. Many don't realize this conflict lasted about 40. The Wall was dedicated on Veterans Day 1982 in D.C. and list over 58000 names of service members who died or went missing in action. Not all the names on the wall were from Combat Veterans but also those who were working in support. The Wall was designed by Maya Lin, the polished black granite wall is shaped like a V, with its 246 foot long sides pointing toward the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial. The Healing wall is a replica of the original and displayed in Bartlesville until Sunday. Please go visit the Healing Wall and visit the portable museum.
