Rachel Thompson/News-Register##Susan and David Vandewater of Chehalis, Washington, view the Oregon Memorial Traveling Wall alongside Vietnam veteran Tom Beckley, right, on Friday at the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum in McMinnville. The wall, a project of Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 805 in Roseburg and the Umpqua Valley, lists the names of Oregon service members who died in the Vietnam War and honors those lost in later conflicts. American Legion Post 21 of McMinnville brought the wall to Evergreen March 27-29; it travels to communities across the state.
