THE WALL SOUTH.wmv

This video is a tribute to all the men and women who have made the supreme sacrifice and to all of those who have not returned yet from all conflicts and wars we have been involved in. I also wanted to try and make more people aware of this great Veterans Memorial Park Wall South located in Pensacola, FL.

I want to thank all the brothers and sisters who were there this past Memorial Day weekend. I really enjoyed the honor of being a part of the ceremonies we did and just enjoying the great feeling of brotherhood. Special thanks to all the Florida brothers who could not do enough to make a brother feel welcomed.

And I want to thank my brother MAD MAX for giving me more photos than I could have imagined..

The song is "THAT ONE IS MY DAD", written and performed by Keni Thomas, and it is on his latest album, GUNSLINGER. Keni served with the 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment's Task Force Ranger in Somalia in Oct, 1993. RLTW

THE WALL SOUTH is 256 feet long, each wing is 128 feet long, and consists of 32 panels per wing. Height at the center is 8 feet 2 inches and descends in height to two inches at the ends. The Wall South lists the names of all 58,219 men and women listed as KIA or MIA from the war in Vietnam. The names are inscribed in the black granite face of the two walls.

It also has a World War I Memorial (relocated to the park from downtown Pensacola), a World War II Memorial, a Monument dedicated the World War II Submarine Lifesaving League, a Vietnam-era HU-1M Huey helicopter, a children of Vietnam Veterans memorial and all future memorials which may be added to the park.
