Great little place I stopped to eat lunch at. As a Veteran, I appreciate places like this.

This place is amazing I really enjoyed walking around and thinking about our Vietnam veterans. I may be partial though as I think how our troops were treated when they got back from over there was apalling and I feel its my way of remembering all those we lost. I will forever be grateful for their sacrifices

Flew my starter drone around for about an hour. Park was clean and quiet. A few people came and went over the lunch hour and everyone was pleasant. A nice quiet park just off 75 and Dixie.

Usually a quiet dirty park where people randomly pull up to the playground (with no kids), sit for 20 minutes and then leave.

Great place for the crack heads to be sketchy. Watch your kids. Rubbers found on the playground more than once.

This is a spot where we like to stop on our way from Michigan to visit family in Ohio. It is always peaceful, clean, and the memorial is inspiring. The dog likes to stretch his legs back in the field and it gives us a break as well.

Definitely a cool site I ended up using in some senior photos once and they looked super cool. Not to mention the history of the displays are very powerful

The Viet Nam memorial sits just inside when you enter the park. Its a beautiful tribute. The park also has a sheltered picnic area and a playground. There is a big hill for sledding in the winter.

Wonderful Vietnam War memorial Park! Small museum also located on the grounds, honoring the local men who served and died in the war. One genuine Huey gunship on display, a REAL Vietnam veteran, as well as an AH-1 Cobra, which isnt a genuine Nam vet...seems cobbled together, or they had to settle for what the Army gave them as phased out surplus. Nice paved paths to walk around and view other smaller displays. Overall, worth the visit. It is affiliated with the local Vietnam Veterans of America chapter.
