A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
TO DESIGNATE MAY 2327, 2002, AS “THE WALL THAT HEALS DAYS” IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND TO ENCOURAGE ALL SOUTH CAROLINIANS TO VISIT THIS EXTRAORDINARY MEMORIAL.
Whereas, from May 2327, 2002, Lee County and the City of Bishopville will host the Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial Fund’s Traveling Wall, which is also known as “The Wall That Heals”; and
Whereas, “The Wall That Heals” is an exact halfscale replica of the original Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial in Washington, D.C.; and
Whereas, “The Wall That Heals” travels across the United States, reminding us of the nearly sixtythousand Americans, our family, friends, and neighbors, who made the ultimate sacrifice defending freedom in Southeast Asia; and
Whereas, the names of eight hundred ninetyfive South Carolinians who perished while serving in Vietnam are enshrined on “The Wall That Heals”; and
Whereas, “The Wall That Heals” will be welcomed officially to the State of South Carolina at a special ceremony on Thursday, May 23, 2002; and
Whereas, during its fiveday visit to South Carolina, the public will be able to view it twentyfour hours a day at Lake Ashwood in Lee County; and
Whereas, all South Carolinians are encouraged to celebrate this special time and visit the memorial to recognize not only the loss and sacrifice of those whose names are inscribed on The Wall, but also the hundreds of thousands of men and women who lost their lives in military service to this State and Nation; and
Whereas, may we all be humbled by their service and eternally appreciative of their commitment to freedom and democracy. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the members of the General Assembly designate May 2327, 2002, as “The Wall that Heals Days” in South Carolina and encourage all South Carolinians to visit this extraordinary memorial.
Be it further resolved that the names of those South Carolinians who gave their lives be attached to this resolution.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be forwarded to The Honorable Charles A. Beasley, Chairman of Lee County and to The Honorable Thomas H. Alexander, Mayor of the City of Bishopville.
