Could be like a Vietnam Vets memorial - in black and below ground
level.

Many of us cherish the Memorial. You, apparently, do not.

You have no friends' names engraved upon The Wall. I do.
You don't know what a Combat Infantry Badge requires. I do.
You've never parachuted from an aircraft. I have.
You've never been to The Wall. I have.

Please, leave the Vets' memorial out of your mindless meanderings.

Screaming Eagles....AIRBORNE!

I've been to the Wall. For all the controversy generated when it was
designed, and built, it is perhaps the most fitting and dignified
memorial out of all the memorials I've seen. Sobering. Nothing to stop
you in your tracks like watching someone bawling their eyes out reading
the names of their lost buds or making a tracing of the same.

Keep it out of the stupid arguments in this group.
