Veterans Day

 

Each year on Veterans Day, thousands of veterans and their families congregate at The Wall to remember and to honor those who served in the U.S. armed forces. On these special days, prominent Americans from all walks of life come to the Memorial to deliver thoughtful and patriotic speeches.

For more information about the annual ceremonies at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, please contact VVMF at (202) 393-0090 or via e-mail at vvmf@vvmf.org.
