As part of The Wall That Heals exhibit, local Vietnam Veterans who died after returning home are eligible to be honored as part of the
In Memory Honor Roll display.
There is no cost to have a veteran honored and the application process is simple.
To honor a loved one, you only need to complete a short application and submit
the veteran’s DD214 showing their proof of service in Vietnam,
a copy of their death certificate and two photographs.
Additional information on the In Memory program and the application form can be found here:
VVMF In Memory Program
Please submit their information before June 2nd, 2026
Since the Vietnam War ended, thousands of Vietnam veterans have suffered due to Agent Orange exposure, PTSD and other illnesses as a result of their service. The Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund (VVMF) believes all those who served in Vietnam should be honored and remembered for their service.
The In Memory program enables the families and friends of those who came home and later died the opportunity to have them be forever memorialized. All veterans from Montana honored through In Memory will have their photos and names on display as part of the mobile Education Center exhibit when The Wall That Heals is in Billings, MT (July 2nd- July 5th).
We want to honor as many Vietnam veterans from Montana as possible. If your loved one served in Vietnam, returned home and later died – we want to be able to proudly display their name and photo in our community.
We’re asking for the public’s help to identify eligible veterans and get their applications into VVMF so their veteran can be on display in Billings.
In addition to The Wall That Heals display, having a veteran honored through In Memory
includes:
• As part of the In Memory Honor Roll, an online personal remembrance page is
created for each honoree with their photo and biographical information. Family
members can share the page and leave remembrances about their loved one.

• An invitation to In Memory weekend in Washington, D.C., which includes a touching
ceremony on the site of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial where each honoree’s
name is read aloud. Each applicant also receives a printed personal tribute
certificate with their veteran’s photo(s).
This event is hosted by the Eugene Sara Detachment
