Minnesota IX

Duluth's memorial on Lake Superior is quite awe inspiring. I visited many years ago and want to return today for a few more photos and features. You can see my original post from this unique site here.

This is one of the views from the inside, looking out. the sunlight beaming in through the light boxes highlight the names listed here.

The names are divided into the counties in Minnesota and Wisconsin from which they came to serve. 

The posted information explains the sites development and goals.

 

Next time, on the 19th. we will return to Mississippi to honor a few more of those remembered on the very first memorial I ever photographed way back in 2009, so join me there, as always, at 9:00 am.

 

To see additional memorials from Minnesota or any other state, please click a state name on the left side of this page. Please note that Canada, Ireland, and Puerto Rico have been added to the list.

If you are following along at all, you will have seen that a number of you, like Joan from Wisconsin, Tony from Texas, Mike from Maryland, Ron, and Molly from Florida have responded to my request to send me memorials you have seen in your area or where you may have traveled. I even got one from Ireland! These submissions help expand the knowledge of how we have remembered the men and women who served or were lost in 'Nam and you help to honor them. If you have any such photos, I would love to see them. Please send them along to the email at the left and I will gladly share them here. Thanks, once again, to all who have contributed.
