November 13, 1982 - Inauguration of the Vietnam War Memorial in the United States

In the National Square Washington DC millions of Americans gathered to protest against the Vietnam War in the 60s of the last century.

The wall is located in the Vietnam War Veterans Memorial Center in downtown Washington DC and was inaugurated on September 13, 1982 with an area of ​​8,100 m². Every year this project welcomes up to 3 million visitors.

The Vietnam War Memorial , also known as the Vietnam War Wall, is a V-shaped monument with black granite. On this wall is the name of the 58,000 American warriors who were killed or missing when participating in the Vietnam War. In the event that the missing people return, their names will be circled as symbols of life

According to the information printed on the brochure for tourists, the Vietnam War Memorial was constructed on March 26, 1982, according to the idea of ​​a Vietnam Veterans group in Washington DC, who established Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund to raise money for construction.

More than 1,400 architectural projects were sent and they selected the project of Yale architecture student, Maya Ying Lin.

This is also where the US veterans often stop by as a reminder of a dark period in their own history.
