Motorcade ushers in National Memorial wall from Austintown to Warren

 A mobile Vietnam Memorial wall made its way to Packard Music Hall in Warren.

It's called The Wall that Heals and honors the 58,281 veterans who lost their lives in the Vietnam War.

In a show of solidarity a sea of hundreds of motorists, the majority of them veterans, prepared to take on perhaps their most important mission.

"It's right here. It's in our hearts. To follow this in, to bring it in," James Valesky, president of the Warren Heritage Center said.

The group formed a motorcade to go from Austintown to Warren carrying a National Memorial with the names of those veterans who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

"Vietnam veterans are getting close to 80, if not exceeding 80 and so it's a little more difficult for them and their families to come to Washington D.C. to the Vietnam wall itself," Valesky said.

Sixty one of those killed were from Trumbull County alone so it's like a welcome home ceremony that they were never able to receive.

"To understand what that wall means not just to families and friends, but to the other veterans that lost buddies and family while they were out fighting," James

Brown, Safety Officer of the Warren Chapter of HOG said.

"It can bring you to tears. I'm so proud of our military and our great country. I just am so happy to be part of this," Ann Faulkner, a rider in the motorcade said.

The trailer serves as a mobile Education Center telling the story of the Vietnam War.

The opening ceremony will be Thursday night at six and the exhibit is free for everyone to experience until June 1st.
