It is estimated that between 30,000 and 40,000 Canadians crossed over
the longest unprotected border between two nations in the world,
and volunteered to serve in the U.S. Armed Forces.
This web page is dedicated to remembering those Canadians who paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Their names are immortalized on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial
(The Wall) in Washington, D.C.
On July 2nd, 1995, a Canadian Vietnam Veterans Memorial was placed on
Canadian soil in Windsor, Ontario, Canada by three men from Michigan,
Ed Johnson, Ric Gidner and Chris Reynolds, better known as
M.A.C.V. (Michigan Association of Concerned Veterans).
The "North Wall" as it has become known, has all the names of the Canadians
who died in Southeast Asia engraved on the black-granite panels.
