CONWAY — The impact of the Vietnam War was reflected upon anew this week as “The Wall That Heals,” a three-quarter replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, arrived at Ralph W. Shirley American Legion Post 46 on Tasker Hill Road in Conway for a display that continues through Sunday afternoon.

The memorial, along with a mobile Education Center, arrived Tuesday from the Berkshires in western Massachusetts by truck, accompanied by 125 motorcyclists and a classic car contingent from Fryeburg as well as New Hampshire state troopers in a procession from the Ossipee Hannaford up Route 16 to Post 46.
