Traveling Vietnam Wall on Display in St. Louis Area

Wednesday May 7, 2008
A moving tribute to America's veterans is now on display in Jefferson County. The Traveling Vietnam Veterans Memorial is a replica of the Wall that stands in Washington, D.C. and it really is something to see. The replica reaches more than eight feet tall and is 370 feet long. The Memorial also includes a Walk of Heroes which remembers the nearly 3,000 people who died in the September 11 terrorist attacks. The Memorial will be open this weekend at Walther Park in DeSoto.
