Subject: More than 58,000 Dog Tags of US Men & Women who died in the VIETNAM War . Thẻ Bài 58 ngàn Quân Nhân Hoa Kỳ Hy Sinh tại VN
Kính chuyển đến quý hữu một điêu khắc thật độc đáo, có thể mang cho người thưởng ngoạn rúng động đến rướm máu - 58 ngàn thẻ bài của Quân nhân Hoa Kỳ đã hy sinh tại chiến trường Việt Nam.
When visitors first enter the
museum, they will hear a sound like wind chimes coming from above them and
their attention will be drawn upward 24 feet to the ceiling of the two-story
high atrium.
Dog tags of the more than 58,000 service men and women who died in the Vietnam War hang from the ceiling of the National Vietnam Veterans Art Museum in Chicago on Veterans Day, November 11, 2010. The 10-by-40-foot sculpture, entitled Above & Beyond, was designed by Ned Broderick and Richard Stein.

The tens of thousands of metal dog
tags are suspended 24 feet in the air, 1 inch apart, from fine lines that allow
them to move and chime with shifting air currents. Museum employees using a
kiosk and laser pointer help visitors locate the exact dog tag with the
imprinted name of their lost friend or relative.
