Riding around turns out The Moving Wall is in my neck of the woods. It truly is "moving". I saw the real one in Washington DC years ago and the moving part of the experience is the people at that particular point in time. Same feeling today.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I visited the moving wall at Travis air base a dozen years ago and it moved me deeply. I walked up and started reading names and it was a bit overwhelming. What got me was someone had left their medals on a small sign leaned against the wall with the the single word "Buddy". I choked up and could not hold it together after that. Recalling that still brings me to tears.

I periodically visit the one in Washington. I know where my fallen comrades are on it. I spend an hour or so talking to them there. It's a very appropriate monument to that war.

I have meet people who served. That was not my case and still the place with all family members morning their love ones is overwhelming to me. I certainly appreciate their sacrifice. I agree, it's very appropriate.
I've been to the one in D.C., but never seen the moving wall.

The erie feeling (and I mean this in the most positive way) it's pretty much the same.
