VIETNAM VETERANS MEMORIAL PYLON



This memorial pylon is proudly dedicated to the members of the Philippine contingents and Philippine Civic Action groups to Vietnam (PHILCON-V and PHILCAG-V). These dedicated men and women served as medical, dental, engineering construction, community and psychological workers, and security complement who offered tremendous sacrifices as they alleviated human sufferings in war-ravaged Vietnam from 1964-1971. Inscribed on the memorial pylon are the words: “To build and not to destroy, to bring the Vietnamese people happiness and not sorrow, to develop goodwill and not hatred.”
