Vietnam Veteran’s Memorial

Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Jacksonville, North Carolina.

“The Vietnam Veterans Memorial at Lejeune Memorial Gardens is dedicated to all men and women who served during the Vietnam War. It stands as recognition for the nearly ten million Veterans of the five branches of the Armed Forces who served active duty during the Vietnam era, nearly three million of whom served in the Vietnam theater. With this memorial, the 303,704 service members who were wounded in Vietnam, the many POW/MIAs who are still unaccounted for, and the 58,229 men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country are remembered.

The Vietnam Veterans Memorial at Lejeune Memorial Gardens is second in size only to the national Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington DC, and is one of only a few that lists all the names of the fallen.”
