    Default Memorial Weekend, Moving Wall, Ft Collins

    Anyone else going ? If you have not had the Honor / Opportunity to view the one in DC. This is a must visit, if possible. A very humbling experience, to say the least.

    Everyone should go see it, if they havent seen it before.

    Don't forget to bring a monetary donation.

    Was in the escort riders group. Definitely a must see. Should you ever have a chance to get to D.C. on Memorial Day, the wall is a must visit and will change you forever.

    Can't make it but rip to my great uncle who is still Mia and the 60000 others that gave the ultimate sacrifice.
    You sir, are a specialist in the art of discovering a welcoming outcome of a particular situation....not a mechanic.

    Thanks for the heads up. I'll be taking my family. I visited the one in DC on my very first day of active duty back in 1986. It was moving then, and it will be moving now.
