DELAFIELD - No matter where you see the
Vietnam Veterans Memorial, it is a moving experience, said Kelly
Bukowsky with Delafield Legion Post 196.
Bukowsky has visited the actual Vietnam Veterans Memorial in
Washington, D.C., four times over the years, and seen the replica
version that travels around the country twice. The replica, or
Moving Wall as it’s known, will be making a stop in Delafield this
week, Thursday through Oct. 20, sponsored by the American Legion
post.
"It’s always emotional, no matter where you see it,"
Bukowsky said. "The wall is the same, it’s the surroundings
that are different."
The Moving Wall will be displayed at the Fish Hatchery grounds on
Main Street starting at 11 a.m. Thursday. The city has declared
Thursday through Oct. 20 "Delafield Veterans Days" and
several activities are planned in conjunction with the memorial’s
presence.
