Vietnam Memorial Wall Replica Coming To Western Mass.

Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund

A replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial will be displayed in western Massachusetts this summer as part of a national tour. 

Thousands of people are expected to visit the exhibit which will be at the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield. 

A local planning committee has started working on the details.  WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke with Chris Lizotte, director of the West Springfield Department of Veterans Services.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
