Since its unveiling last November, the V-shaped memorial has inspired much criticism. Many took offense at the black wall sinking into the ground, while the other (All) American monuments stand virgin-white, and rise into the heavens.

But in the dead of a Washington winter, while the ivory towers disappear in the overcast sky, one monument has the strenth and presence to survive. The names carved into the mirror-like, black granite wall — the names of more than 57.000 Americans who died in Vietnam — break through the snowy White scene more noticed and more honored than any of the other monuments shivering on Constitution Avenue.
