The wall is an 80 percent scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington D.C. It features the name of every armed forces member that lost their life in the Vietnam War.
A ceremony was held Saturday Morning at 10:00 AM. Idaho Governor Butch Otter attended the ceremony and spoke to attendees.
The wall will remain open to the public until 2:00 PM today. A closing ceremony will take place this afternoon at 2:00 PM before the wall is dismantled and leaves Jerome.
The Jerome City Council and Mayor David Davis are committed to planning more Vietnam War Ceremonies in the upcoming years.
