MARQUETTE, MI-- The American Veterans Traveling Tribute Traveling Vietnam Wall will be in Marquette starting Wednesday.
The Marquette County Veterans Alliance is hosting the event to give U.P. veterans and their families an opportunity to visit and pay their respects at the wall, and provide closure to those affected by the war.
The wall will be set up in the Superior Dome’s northeastern parking lot Wednesday through Saturday. More than 200 motorcycle riders from local groups and law enforcement agencies will escort the wall through Ishpeming and Negaunee into Marquette via Third Street on Wednesday. Ceremonies honoring Native Americans, women, and all others who were in the war will be held throughout the week.
