I remember when the Vietnam War Memorial plans were announced. The outrage and furor over a memorial that was little more than a wall in a hole in the ground. And the families that were upset that they were not consulted about neither the design nor the decision to list the names by the year that they died.
Today it is one of the most visited memorials in the US. It is amazing how a few years can change our perspective, and how too often we can be too close to see the bigger picture.
