The American Veteran’s Traveling Tribute (AVTT) provided a replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall last week for the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) Reunion.  The Group celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the Group’s activation on September 21st, 1961. The Traveling Wall is an 80 percent scale version of the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington, D.C. The mission of the project is to travel the nation to honor respect, and remember men and women who served, and to pay specific tribute to those who gave all in that service.
