?The Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Columbus, GA is a brick wall about 8 feet tall and about 25 feet long in which a very large cicular clay "medallion" is embedded in its center that shows three American soldiers dressed in Vietnam era combat uniforms, with a US flag beside them. This center circle is flanked on both sides with dedicated sections of bricks that are engraved with local Vietnam veteran's names. The monument is simple in that it is all brick. On the back of the wall, facing the street, is a brown park sign with large white letters that states, "Vietnam Veterans Memorial Park." On the front of the wall, at the bottom part of the "medallion" the inscription reads, "Vietnam Veterals Memorial / Eternally Grateful For You Will Be Forever Remembered".
