Families, friends, relatives and surviving veterans come to the wall to search out the names of their loved ones and feel some connection to them. They leave flowers, notes, and other trinkets to honor the dead. After having seen it for myself, I can say there is nowhere else that comes to mind when someone says 'the wall'. >
Thanks for your detailed description of The Wall and its history. I graduated from high school in 1966 with 494 other young men. Forty of them died in Viet Nam. It took seven hours, but I found all their names on The Wall. When no one on this planet remembers that there ever was a Pink Floyd, there will still be The Wall.
