A visit to Fort Benning

July 16, 1014

We belong to a camping club called Yosemite Sams. This is a Good Sam club from Georgia. Our members are located all and around Georgia and even two couples with homes in Florida. We meet every month except for January. This group loves camping, sightseeing, and socializing, We also do lots of good works with several charities. Among those are Murphy Harpst Home in Rome Georgia, A school  in a very poor district of Middle Georgia and Childrens Hospital of Atlanta.

Our last campout was hosted in the Fort Benning area. We had many good memories to bring home.

Among our best memories was a visit to the National Infantry Military Museum

For 23 years, the Dignity Memorial Vietnam Wall has traveled throughout our country to make the Wall experience real for those who had not had the opportunity to see the original Vietnam Wall in Washington D.C. And like the Wall in Washington, more than 58,000 names of patriots who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country are etched on it.

The Dignity Memorial Vietnam Wall will now remain at the National Infantry Museum until at least 2019, standing alongside the permanent memorial to Vietnam veterans at the museum.

During our visit we wanted to honor one of our own. A member and a man who served in both Korean and Vietnam War.

We salute Bill Day.
