POW-MIA Trailers Lose Prime Real Estate
Jogging on the Mall one morning we noticed that with the construction underway for the new Vietnam War Memorial Visitors Center, the POW-MIA trailers had disappeared. These are the booths that were between the Lincoln Memorial and the Reflecting Pool.
We spoke to a park ranger who said the booths had been moved farther down the Mall. We followed his directions but only found one of them, near Constitution Ave & 20th ST. Still one the Mall, and still very close to the Wall. But nowhere near as prominently displayed as they once had been.
