Bridgewater, NJ - Up to 100,000 people are expected to visit a replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial visiting the township this month as part of a traveling tribute to fallen servicemen and servicewomen. This 370-foot-long wall - 80 percent of the size of the actual memorial in the nation's capital - will be among several exhibits at the county fairgrounds at North Branch Park on Milltown Road beginning Oct. 13.
Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 452 is sponsoring the event, which will feature ceremonies and memorials over four days.
