Vietnam Veterans' Wall, Washington, D.C.

Description

As a teenager, Michael, my husband, wore the name band of Dwight A. Bremmer, a Vietnam Vet. He never met or knew the man. When we got to the wall, one of the nice Rangers working there not only showed us where to find the name, but also did a rubbing for us and gave us a great historical account of the monument, as well as real life stories of others who came searching for loved ones lost.
