Moving Wall replica attracts crowds in Girard Kansas

The Moving Wall, a half scale Vietnam Veterans Memorial replica, drew thousands to Girard in Crawford County. The exhibit, with 58 191 names, arrived on Tuesday and will stay a week in the 2 700 resident town. Designer John Devitt from San Jose said the wall personalizes loss and aims for minimal guidance to let communities participate. A large Viet Nam Vets parade and ceremony with 450 to 1 100 members from Kansas City was planned, along with American Legion and VFW events.

Keeper of the Plains statue spurs cross state statue clash

Leaders from 37 tribes will attend Enid’s dedication. The dispute hinges on name and branding rather than design.
