The Mobile Education Center with The Wall that Heals
The Mobile Education Center is a 53-foot trailer that serves a dual purpose: it transports The Wall That Heals replica and transforms into an immersive educational experience for visitors. The center is carefully designed to provide essential context about the Vietnam War while highlighting the personal stories represented by the names inscribed on The Memorial.
Exhibit Features
Hometown Heroes
Digital photo displays showcase service members whose names appear on The Wall and who listed with Hawaii as their home of record. These displays foster a personal connection between the local community and those who served.
