The Wall That Heals travels in a 53-foot trailer, unfolding into a mobile Education Center when parked, recounting the story of the Vietnam War. This three-quarter scale replica, 375 feet long and 7.5 feet high, allows visitors to experience its towering presence, with the opportunity to make name rubbings of service members.
The mobile Education Center exhibit features several components: digital photo displays showcasing "Hometown Heroes" - service members listed on the wall with their hometown from Frisco and its neighboring communities; digital photo displays honoring local Vietnam veterans through the VVMF’s In Memory program; video displays providing insights into the history and significance of the wall; educational exhibits depicting items typically left at the wall in D.C.; a replica of the In Memory plaque; a map of Vietnam; and a chronological overview of the Vietnam War. These exhibits collectively narrate the story of the Vietnam War, the wall, and the era surrounding the conflict. They aim to offer a historical and cultural framework to understand the American experiences in Vietnam.
The 2024 national The Wall That Heals tour is generously sponsored by USAA. Through a partnership with the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA), the trucking industry, and Blue Beacon, the exhibit is able to travel across the country.
