THE WALL
On Veterans Day 1996, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund (VVMF) unveiled a replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., designed to travel to communities throughout the United States. This three-quarter sized replica of the memorial measures 375' long and 7.5' tall at its apex. Etched in The Wall's granite panels are the names of over 58,000 men and women who sacrificed their lives serving overseas during the Vietnam War.
Since its dedication, The Wall That Heals has been displayed at nearly 700 communities throughout the nation, spreading the Memorial’s healing legacy to millions.
​
Bringing The Wall home to communities throughout our country allows the souls enshrined on the Memorial to exist once more among family and friends in the peace and comfort of familiar surroundings. The traveling exhibit provides thousands of veterans who have been unable to cope with the prospect of facing The Wall to find the strength and courage to do so within their own communities, thus allowing the healing process to begin.
​
Beginning October 27, The Wall That Heals will be hosted in Chambers County, Texas by a volunteer group called The Wall That Heals - Chambers County. This endeavor is made possible by support from various entities and organizations including Chambers County, Texas and the Chambers County Republican Women.
