Daylight Cemetery Tours: Vietnam 50 Years Later

October 8, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Daylight Cemetery Tours at Forest Hill Cemetery
Tours leave every 20 minutes between the Noon and 4pm

On March 29, 1973, the last American combat troops were withdrawn from Vietnam and Wisconsin was there in more ways than one. Join the Wisconsin Veterans Museum for their annual Talking Spirits: Forest Hill Cemetery Tours, now celebrating its 25th year, to see, hear, and experience how the Vietnam War changed the lives of thousands of Wisconsinites for decades to come. These tours will feature four vignettes along the tour route, as historical actors portray veterans’ experiences in Vietnam, as well as the policymakers who brought the war to conclusion, and the important mission of bringing our MIA’s home.
