SPOONER, WI (Northland's NewsCenter) - Wisconsin Vietnam veterans got an at-home look at their monument in Washington D.C. called the moving wall.
It may be a wall that moves from city to city, but it's been moving those who stand before it, since 1984.
"It's to give honor in remembering the 58,000 people that died in service for their country," said JT Koser, the MC.
The opening ceremony served as a reminder to honor those who served us. Congressional Medal of Honor Recipent Gary Wetzel spoke at the ceremony as well as a Veterans Service Officer.
"Let's never forget the blood price paid for the freedom we so cherish." said Vernon Co. Veterans Service Officer Jim Young.
Even though it's only a replica of the actual Vietnam Memorial in D.C., the experience is very real for those who haven't seen it.
A closing ceremony is scheduled for July 31.
The wall will remain at the Northern Wisconsin Veterans Memorial Cemetery through Aug 1. From there, it will be sent to Rugby, North Dakota.

If you are in urgent need of Vietnam visa then this agency can help you but you have to pay extra US $ for that. So don't think much about Vietnam visa just visit the web page of greenvisa.io and get all things cleared. Wish you a nice Vietnam trip.
