The Traveling Wall, and half-size replica of the Vietnam Veterans
Memorial located on the national Mall in Washington, D.C., is
currently on display in Venice at the Venice Municipal Airport
grounds on South Harbor Drive.

It is open to the public and is free.

The 253-foot-long black aluminum replica lists all the names contained
on the actual Wall in Washington; all 58, 209.

Those of us who have seen the memorial on the Mall know the feelings
and emotions it sparks. The replica can be just as emotional.

Sunday activities at the exhibit include a church service at 10am and
a special memorial service at 8pm. The Wall is open all day and night
and will be in Venice until its dismantling at 4pm Wednesday, Oct. 8.

Names on the Wall from this immediate area include:
	+  Richard Grover Cleveland, U.S. Army, Venice
	+  Denis Nicholas, U.S. Army, Venice
	+  James William Peterson, Englewood
	+ David keith Wyrick, U.S.M.C., North Port
