Hayley Elizondo – Memorial Hike

 

“Women who stepped up were measured as citizens of the nation not as women. This was a peoples war, and everyone was in it”

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.”

“Our nation honors her sons and daughters who answered the call to defend a country they never knew and people they never met”

 “It may seem strange that any man should dare to ask a just God’s assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men’s faces but let us judge not that we be not judged.”

“Our nation honors the courage, sacrifice and devotion to duty and country of its Vietnam veterans. This memorial was built with private contributions from the American people.”
