Washing The Wall

Fred Childs Posts,

The Vietnam Memorial (The Wall) was given its monthly bath Saturday April 20, 2013.  Participating was a Vet group from Michigan and the Silver Spring, MD., Viet Nam Veterans of America including our buddy Charlie Shyab.  The wall was thoroughly scrubbed and completed by 8:00am.

Here are the pictures:
