The Vietnam Conflict was an ugly and harsh time that took a toll on our men like no other war. It was the place where we truly learned what "Jungle Warfare" was all about. For the first time in our nations history, our heroes came back to a divided and mostly ungrateful nation. Many still have not been properly welcomed home. Others gave the ultimate sacrifice.

At least 221 Tarrant County Residents died as a result of the conflict in Vietnam. Currently there is no local minument to honor those , by name, killed in Southeast Asia. We will lead a coalition of Tarrant County officials, the Fort Worth Parks Department, national and local veterans organizations, as well as patriotic groups and individuals across North Texas, in designing, building, and installing a memorial to those military Veterans who made the ultimate sacrifice in Southeast Asia.
