Vietnam War Memorial with wreaths at sunrise, Washington, DC, USA. Vietnam War Memorial with Washington Monument in the distance, Washington, DC, USA. The Vietnam Veterans War Memorial is most abstract memorial on the National Mall. It is also, to many, the most profound and emotional. The two sunken black granite walls, dedicated in 1982, are inscribed with the names of the 58,000-plus American service members who died in the Vietnam War. Designer Maya Lin called her controversial design an “anti-monument.”
