3/6/14 - The Moving Wall replica of the National Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. is returning in late summer to Hamburg Township. The wall lists all 58,000-plus American causalities from the war. It also came to Hamburg in 2010, which is pictured here. It left such an impact that volunteers immediately applied to have the memorial return. The traveling exhibit is scheduled to return from Aug. 28 through Sept. 1 in West Bennett Park. Also planned is a Bob Hope USO show, with an impersonator acting as the late comedian. Military displays and vehicles will be part of the weekend's events. Former prisoners of war from the Vietnam War, Korean War and World War II will be honored guests. (JK)
