The Wall
There are 58,183 names on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. The lives they touched tell their stories.
The story of three items left at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall: a pencil holder, a sheriff's badge, and an electric guitar. Each item connects the living with the dead and are left as either memorials or to heal the wounds of war.
