As the Vietnam war commemoration and reflective form of expression, in the United States, is located in Washington, the Viet Nam War Memorial Wall; in Viet Nam, is located in the war crimes Memorial (War Remnant Museum).

Washington's War Memorial Wall in Viet Nam (Vietnam Veterans Memorial) was built in 1982, is the United States visit the greatest number of Memorial Wall, each year attracts thousands of United States to remember some of them at the time you want to forget.

The black granite wall carved 58175 names, one by one, single line and line, from beginning to end, the names of people watching to 3 days. The names of the dead time. In the V-shaped junction points, the first batch of dead names and last names of the killed here rendezvous — this is a starting point and end point, only the first batch of those killed and the last of those killed in war.

War crimes Memorial from unified Palace not far to walk 10 minutes.

Because Memorial Hall at 12: 00-14: 00 rest, we find a nearby restaurant, eating lunch and then past visits. After lunch, two points not to, we came to the Memorial Hall door, the door closed Hall has a lot of people are waiting around, look at the front, back, left, white skin of European and American tourists, Asia faces several of us.

Presently, the door opened, we line up to buy tickets go in and visit.

Memorial of the layout is very simple, there are three Museum will present the small courtyard is placed the aircraft, tanks, armoured vehicles, artillery and things like that. Memorial of the facility is also very simple, hot day, no air conditioning, several mounted on the wall of the fans blowing back and forth. But the picture information in the Memorial and the real is a Visual impact, massacre, US Army photo of various acts of sabotage, and dead leaves for a description of the effect of the others, even in the Fu-Marin's morbid fetus is one of the exhibits, seems unabashed the Viet Nam war wounds all show up after seeing people with a heavy heart.

Museum of the town has many field reporters on the Vietnam war in the black and white photos, many of them, unfortunately, not able to live out of the war.

There are two photographs to impresses me: a photo in a photo, two mothers, in order to escape the raging fire by us military village, embracing her own children, jump into the River, the River is so urgent that mothers is almost powerless to hold children across the River. Photographer photographing this moment: photos in the mother's eyes, like a stuck in the trap in its death throes of the eyes of the beast, so desperate, so helpless. It is said that this photo for that year's Pulitzer Prize.

There is also a photo is in the Vietnam war in the missing US soldier photo collection, their colour varies in different, look, just a bit missing US soldier's photo is magnified, he looks handsome, look blue, as if what you are telling.

I stare at this picture with the girls when Scarlett quietly in my ear: "look, they put the most handsome one of pictures of less, most likely to win sympathy. ”

A visit to the Museum after the CityGuide wrote such a phrase: "If you are a thought through war can solve all the problems of people who go there to see, you can become your mind and no longer the militant; if you are a peace-loving people who go there to see, you'll be more determined your convictions.

"Yes, for this in a hundred years in countries torn invasion, is there anything more precious than peace?
