Ground breaking 8/4/90
Dedication 8/3/91
Plaza dedication 8/1/92

The Vietnam War Monument
was created to honor the
"living, missing and dead"
from the Vietnam War.
1959-1975.

The monument itself is to help
heal America's wounds from
this war, honoring those who
served. The flame symbolizes
a hope for the return of the
missing and a wish for peace
to those who died. The plaza
enables us all to join together
to share a tribute to Vietnam
veterans and their families.
