A few images from this weekend’s Vietnam Veterans Homecoming Celebration put on by the USO of North Carolina at Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord. Among the many military exhibits was the Wall that Heals, a scaled-down replica of the Vietnam Memorial in Washington D.C. To cap off the day, Kannapolis-born George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic performed as well as The Charlie Daniels Band.
