John Nugent, a Vietnam veteran, plays the bagpipes as a part of the opening ceremony at the Dignity Memorial Vietnam Wall at Mt. Trashmore Park in Virginia Beach, Va., on Nov. 17, 2006. The exhibit crisscrosses the country each year, allowing millions of visitors to see and touch the black, mirror-like surface inscribed with the names of more than 58,000 Americans who died or are missing in Vietnam. The wall honors all U.S. veterans and is dedicated to Vietnam veterans. (U.S. Navy PHOTO By Mass Communication SPECIALIST SEAMAN Tristan Miller) (Released)
