Wall South Pensacola, Florida - Wall South - Replica Vietnam War Memorial

An exact replica (smaller scale) of "The Wall" monument in Washington, DC. "Wall South is the only permanent Vietnam Veterans Memorial outside of the nation's capital –- to list the names of all 58,217 Americans killed or missing in Southeast Asia." A popular destination for military reunion groups, Veteran's Park also contains monuments to WWII and Korean War Veterans. This park is a lovely maintained tribute to military veterans. [Vicki Stevison, 11/13/2000]

[RA: A salvaged Nam Era helicopter is poised over the 3/4 scale wall. It was the nation's first "full-name" replica of the Vietnam Veteran's Memorial in Washington, D.C. Another replica wall is reported to be in Winfield, KS.]
