    Walking to the Wall by Ronnie Ray Jenkins

    By ronnieray  |  Posted February 27, 2011  |  Clearcreek, Pennsylvania
     

    When you're 8-years old and your brother, a Green Beret dies in a place called Vietnam, you are left with the memories of him that can't be erased. It doesn't matter how many years march on, the longing remains. So, it is with thought in mind, I wrote Walking to the Wall. How would a man feel 40 years later, and after much deliberation, makes that trip to the Vietnam Memorial?
