The sculpture is composed of individual dog tags engraved with the name of each of the U.S. soldiers, sailors, airmen, and nurses who lost their lives in the Vietnam War! The tags are then hung as a group in the foyer ceiling of the small museum. This sculpture took over 2 years to create with the artists engraving tags eight hours a day for five days a week and measures 10x40 feet. It is a stunning sight. At the time of this photo it was in the Richard Steinbock and Ned Broderick and National Vietnam War Art Museum in Chicago, Illinois. (2001) Now the National Veterans Art Museum.
