Gateway to the Oregon Vietnam Veterans Memorial
800 of the 58,000 fallen soldiers of Vietnam were from Oregon.
Oregon has the largest Vietnam Memorial by land mass in the United States with 11 acres.
Amen. And Thank you.
One of the six walls listing the names of the fallen. The most were lost between 1966 and 1969.
Generations now and in the future will remember...
If these boots could speak...
I am a veteran of the United States Navy, serving during peace time. There is a brotherhood among service men and women that cannot be explained. I was moved to tears over and over again during the ceremony because of the band of brothers and sisters who gave their lives for this country. I'm honored to be a member of their brotherhood, but am not deserved of the honor bestowed upon those who were touched to the core by casualty.
Taps
We will always...Remember
