About This Memorial

The Washtenaw County Vietnam Veterans Memorial honors all Vietnam War veterans from the county, particularly those who made the ultimate sacrifice or remain missing in action. It commemorates 58 local soldiers who died or went missing during the Vietnam War, with names organized by their hometowns. The memorial's design includes individual tributes to each fallen soldier. Established in 1991, it marks its historical significance with a 20th anniversary observance in 2011. The site serves as both a physical remembrance and a call to 'Welcome Home' Vietnam veterans who returned.
