DC to break ground for center at Vietnam Memorial

Associated Press


WASHINGTON (AP) - Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, Jill Biden and military families will hold a ceremonial groundbreaking for a new education center at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington.

Military leaders and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar were expected to join the groundbreaking Wednesday for the $85 million Education Center at The Wall. It will tell the stories of 58,000 soldiers who died in the Vietnam War and will honor fallen soldiers from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

R10 thanks for the link! The Virtual Wall is always looking for pictures of those we lost in Vietnam. If you have a photo of one of the 58,000 plus and it has not been posted on their site please contact them and send them the picture, I think that it's really special to put a face with a name, it's a great site. It's the least that we can do to honor those men and women.
