Quotes from people who came to the memorial
"I couldn't afford to come here, but I just had to,'' said Sue Rowe, of Phoenix, Arizona who in 1969 and 1970 served at Pleiku in the 71st Army Evacuation Hospital. "I'm determined to cure myself today, to meet these women again, to
come full circle and bring things to a close.''
"I felt the women's monument should be closer to the Wall,'' said Davis, 45, "because these women were the last people those guys saw or talked to before they died.''

What We Need to Remember . . .
"Women are warriors the same as men are warriors,and what this country owes them, if 'owe' is the word,is the same as we give any warrior.
And that every time we sing "The Star-Spangled Banner" ... and we really get off on 'the rockets red glare, bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night that our flag is still there' - that there are soldiers, both men and women, that have given that assurance, and you 'owe' for that assurance. And if you don't want to pay it, don't sing the song." ~ Liz Allen, RVN, 67-68

Three Servicemen Memorial
Dedicated to the spirit of compromise
and reconciliation
![Page 41: 1 Memorial Day Intro[1]Finalshow](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54b726db4a795903798b48eb/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Before he left, he taught me how to drive his car. Then he left it to me to take care of it
"'till he got back." "Dad survived Iwo Jima, Guadalcanal, and all that. I'm a
Marine. I'll be back. Take care of my car." I've still got the car. I would rather have
my big brother back."

What does it Represent?
• The Three Servicemen represent heroism, patriotism, and honor.
• The statue is positioned facing the Vietnam Wall, as if the soldiers are looking for their names. The statue was added to the memorial to detract attention from the Vietnam Wall because of the negative comments that the wall was receiving. Some people felt that Maya Lin's design for the Vietnam War Memorial was an anti-war statement, so they created this statue to detract attention from the other statue. An American flag is flown 24/7 behind them
