... FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THIS CENTURY...

I believe we are referring to two separate monuments. The Wall of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial commemorates the fourth calling of our people to arms by our government in the twentieth century.
I understand what Irish says about the power of The Wall. Perhaps monuments differ from memorials only by the people that visit them in the same way history differs from events. History is something we learn about. Events are something we lived.
