"More Than Self: Living the Vietnam War" is an exhibition based on over 650 veteran oral history interviews preserved in the Atlanta History Center's Veterans History Project. Accompanying the interviews are dozens of compelling photographs and artifacts that illustrate the realities of war. Artifacts include an AR-15 rifle, a Viet Cong hand grenade, and a Montagnard crossbow crafted by native Vietnam inhabitants. The three demonstrate the distinct differences in weapons and combat techniques used by enemies and allies. Photographs of Red Cross “Donut Dollies” near the front lines and a box of C-rations provide a glimpse into the daily life of the men and women in country. A nurse’s boonie hat illustrates her account of protecting severely wounded men while under attack in an evacuation hospital. A telegram notifying a navigator’s wife that her husband’s B-52 was shot down and the striped garment he wore when imprisoned in the Hanoi Hilton remind visitors of the brutality suffered by those who fell into enemy hands. In the U.S., images of protesters in Atlanta's Piedmont Park and a welcome-home sign propped against the front of a serviceman’s home provide two perspectives on the American public’s support for the war. First-hand accounts of verbal and physical assaults on returning veterans expose the treatment of those lucky enough to make it home. This exhibit honors those who served, recognizes the sacrifices of their family members, and encourages all veterans to share their story with the Veterans History Project.

One oversized LED screen was used in this ceremony to project the ceremony and music to the attendees. This permitted us the opportunity to show Vietnam War photos during the presentation of the Vietnam War honors. The Vietnam War flag was stationed at the AVM under the flag pole before the ceremony and remained until the close of day. We have been forced to increase our security on the AVM and can no long make a formal presentation. However, the tribute to our Vietnam War and Vietnam Era veterans was extended. As in the past, script told about the program, facts of the Vietnam War and our partnership with the program and the importance of honoring our Vietnam War veterans. All Vietnam War veterans and Vietnam War era veterans were asked to stand, honored and Welcomed Home.
