Fodor's Review:

The chimelike sounds of more than 58,000 imprinted dog tags hanging from the ceiling entranceway are a melancholy memorial to the soldiers who lost their lives in the unpopular war. Take in the visual journal of the experiences of more than 122 artists who served in Vietnam through the 1,000-plus pieces of art on display here.
