I can imagine how emotional that was for you. I have never made it to Washington DC to visit the Wall.
I did get numerous opportunities to see and stand Honor Guard at the Traveling Wall when it came to Illinois. I also helped with getting the McHenry County Vietnam Menmorial funded, designed and dedicated. Those events were very emotional for me. I know if I ever made it to see the Wall, I would breakdown.
We have a beautiful Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Portland, Oregon and every Memorial Day the is a very moving ceremony.
