War Memorials - 1

We visited the Vietnam Veterans Moving Wall exhibit in August. It was a really nice display, and made us realize just how extensive the deaths were from that war. It doesn't have the names of those who passed away after making it back home, or those who were seriously maimed. But all are honored.

While there, we learned about the only memorial in the United States dedicated to soldiers who have died in relation to the war on terror. It's a beautiful site hosted by the War on Terror Foundation.

The War on Terror Memorial is located along with The Avenue of Flags memorial dedicated to the US hostages in Iran back in 1979.

If you're out on your bike in western Pennsylvania, it's a nice stop.
