"The Moving Wall" is the half size-replica of the Washington, DC Vietnam Veterans Memorial. After touring the country since 1984, The Wall will be in Emmetsburg, Iowa on July21-25, 2016. The Opening Ceremony is on July 21, at 5:30 pm and the Closing Ceremony will be on July 25, at 10 am. How exciting although I saw The Wall when I lived in Midwest City, Oklahoma I would like to see it again. Have you ever seen The Moving Wall or the Wall in Washinton, DC? If you are in another Country do you have anything like this?

We have no moving Wall in our country, but we have War Memorials in almost every city.

@CRK109 It does go all over the country so you have a good chance of it coming there.

I have seen the wall in Washington, DC. I did not know that the Moving Wall had been traveling since 1984. That is amazing!

@Marcyaz - One of our daughters attended a college in Virginia and we often flew in and out of Washington when we visited her.

No I've never seen it. I think it's a good idea for it to tour our country so people who can't get to Washington DC can get a chance to see it.

This would be very special. I would love to see it. We have various exhibitions that move from place to place but I don't think we have anything quite like this.
