Vietnamo karo veteranų memorialas

Memorialas 2022 m.

Vietnamo karo veteranų memorialas tai nacionalinis karo memorialas Jungtinių Valstijų sostinėje Vašingtone. Paminklas yra skirtas pagerbti JAV ginkluotąsias pajėgas, kovojusias Vietnamo kare, karius, žuvusius tarnyboje Vietname bei Pietryčių Azijoje, ir karius, kurie yra laikomi dingusiais be žinios minėtų karo veiksmų metu.

Memorialo statybų bei su jomis susijusios problemos buvo tapusios įvairių diskusijų šaltiniu. Diskusijos baigėsi tuo, kad prie memorialo komplekso buvo pastatyti bei prijungti kiti paminklai. Memorialą šiuo metu sudaro 3 atskiros dalys: Trijų Kareivių statula, Vietnamo moterų memorialas ir žinomiausia memorialo dalis - Vietnamo karo veteranų memorialinė siena.

Memorialo pastatymui įkvėpimą davė pėstininkas Jan Scruggs, tarnavęs Vietname. 1979 metais jis matė filmą, kuris priminė jam apie „kenčiančius bei mirštančius žmones, kuriuos jis matė Vietname”. Tąnakt jis nusprendė pastatyti paminklą, kuriame būtų užrašytos visų Vietnamo kare žuvusių karių pavardės.[1]

Pagrindinė memorialo dalis, baigta statyti 1982 metais, yra Konstitucijos soduose, greta nacionalinės alėjos, į šiaurės rytus nuo Linkolno memorialo. Memorialą prižiūri Nacionalinė parkų tarnyba. Paminklą kasmet aplanko apie 3 milijonus lankytojų. Memorialinę sieną suprojektavo amerikiečių landšafto architektė Maja Lin. 58 159 originalių pavardžių rinkimas ant sienos buvo atliktas kompanijos „Datalantic” Atlantoje (Džordžija).
