Wall South

The Moving Wall inspired the Wall South that currently sits in Pensacola, Florida. In 1987 The Moving Wall arrived in Pensacola. It was so popular, especially among Vietnam Vets that these same vets decided the city needed a permanent wall to honor those who gave their life during the Vietnam War. It took five years to save up the money in order to build the Wall South. The Wall South Foundation was started in order to help the wall come to fruition. A piece of land five and a half acres in size on Bayfront Parkway was purchased.

This same foundation is now in charge for the upkeep of the wall and the property. The Wall South has become a top place to visit in the Florida Panhandle. It has seen visitors like Dan Quayle and Al Gore. Every penny that is used to keep the wall in shape comes from donations usually raised through community awareness. There is a flag pole on site and the base is engraved with "Together Then. Together Again."

The Wall South offers every name of those who served in Vietnam from Florida, as well as many other names in honor of their service.
