The Wall That Heals provides veterans, families, and visitors the opportunity to honor and remember the more than 58,000 men and women who gave their lives during the Vietnam War. The exhibit also includes a mobile education center that shares the history and impact of the war and the stories of those whose names appear on the Wall.
