About New Jersey Vietnam Veterans' Memorial & Museum

The site has two parts. The memorial honors 1,566 New Jersey residents who died while serving in Southeast Asia, and it is free to visit. The museum provides political, cultural, and historical background on the war, and it charges admission. Visitors can also book guided group tours, which can cover just the memorial or just the museum, and a traveling trunk of objects and documents is available for educators to borrow.
