The Monument

Why Are These People Showing Up To The Vietnam Memorial With Buckets And Brushes?

This monument, a simple black granite wall that cuts like a wound into the green hillside,

with its tattoo of names remembers: it remembers those who fell, who gave their all in service to the nation in Vietnam.

Though it is has nothing of the monumental design of so many of the other monuments on, or near the Mall in Washington, D.C.

It has become one of the most visited. Its simplicity, its black surface, like a mirror scarred with those over 58,000 names,

deeply touches everyone who stands before it.
