We'd heard about the site, family members have stopped by previously, since Vern is a Viet Nam Infantry Vet and our fathers both served we wanted to see for ourselves. I took 58 pictures in under an hour. I'll try to do it justice in my pictures. This is a place of contemplatiion, peace and healing and it's very powerful... More

Statues are poignant and interesting, but they are few and far between. Takes a while to drive there from anywhere, and I don't know that it's worth it unless they have a veterans' day celebration or some such thing going on.

Kind of in the middle of nowhere, a moving experience but slightly weird.

When you leave Weed on rt 97, do not turn left off of the road at the intersection with a12, as we were told to, but stay on the road for another mile or so and you will find it. This detour took us maybe 10 miles out of the way and we had to double back to see it.... More

We love sculpture and came of age in the Vietnam era. A friend from Asland told us about this place because we were heading south so we detoured off to see it. Highway construction had entrance closed when we arrived but I parked and asked if we could walk in and they said OK. Sure glad we did. The sculptures... More

We saw a sign for this and decided to stop in. We were not sure what to really expect but it was powerful! It is dedicated to... More

Give yourself the time and the space to contemplate. The setting and the "stations" contribute to memories and feelngs of pride and sorrow to veterans of any conflict...and their friends and loved ones. I was moved to poetry and make yearly visits...well done.
