Book The Vietnam Veterans Memorial at Angel Fire

Download or read book The Vietnam Veterans Memorial at Angel Fire written by Steven Trout and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2020-04-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great white angel spreading her wings across the Moreno Valley: this is how one visitor described the memorial standing atop a windswept prominence in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains near Taos, New Mexico. A de-facto national Vietnam veterans memorial, built by one family more than a decade before the Wall in Washington, DC, and without aid or recognition from the US government, the chapel at Angel Fire is a testament to one young American’s sacrifice—but also to the profound determination of his family to find meaning in their loss. In The Vietnam Veterans Memorial at Angel Fire, Steven Trout tells the story of Marine Lieutenant David Westphall, who was killed near Con Thien on May 22, 1968, and of the Westphall family’s subsequent struggle to create and maintain a one-of-a-kind memorial chapel dedicated to the memory of all Americans lost in the Vietnam War and to the cause of world peace. Focused primarily on a life lost amid our nation’s most controversial conflict and on the Westphalls’ desperate battle to keep their chapel open between 1971 and 1982, the book’s brisk and moving narrative traces the memorial’s evolution from a personal act of family remembrance to its emergence as an iconic pilgrimage destination for thousands of Vietnam veterans. Documenting the chapel’s shifting messages over time, which include a momentary (and controversial) recognition of the dead on both sides of the war, The Vietnam Veterans Memorial at Angel Fire spotlights one American soldier’s tragic story and the monument to hope and peace that it inspired.

Download or read book Lasting Resonance written by Jessamyn Daniel Boyd and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work focuses on two cities in northern Florida, Tallahassee and Jacksonville. These two communities responded to Lin's new approach while maintaining their own unique points of view. The memorial to be placed in Tallahassee would represent the state's commemoration of its Vietnam War veterans, while the Jacksonville memorial would honor all the city's veterans of 20th century military conflicts. This work examines the political and cultural effects of the national memorial on the two cities. The impact of Lin's new focal point had parlayed itself from national, to state, to local levels. Thus, the Florida Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Wall were able to advance the idea of the traditional war memorial through the underlying influence of the National Vietnam Veterans Memorial.
