WEST MANCHESTER TOWNSHIP, Pa. - A mobile memorial, dedicated to our nation's fallen heroes, is now on display at the york Fairgrounds.

Auditor General Eugene DePasquale, along with several other state officials, took part in the dedication ceremony for the Wall That Heals. The wall is a half-size replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. that travel throughout the country. The exhibit also features a museum that includes photos of service members whose names appear on the wall.

"I went out and I looked at their names and I saluted each one of them," Vietnam veteran Philip Frigm said. "It was emotional. I've done that at the wall and I've done that at this wall. They were my brothers and we lost them."

The Wall That Heals is open 24 hours a day and will be at the York Expo Center until 6 p.m. on Sunday.
