The Nevada State Vietnam Veterans Memorial is located in Mills Park, Carson City, Nevada. The quiet and powerful Nevada Vietnam Memorial, which was dedicated on Veterans Day 2002 to honor 151 Nevada men killed or missing in the Vietnam War, serves as Nevada’s state Vietnam veterans memorial today due to the dedication of members of three VVA chapters: Carson Area Chapter 388 who sponsored and financed the memorial, Incarcerated Chapter 545 who quarried the sandstone at the Nevada State Prison and 719 at the Northern Nevada Correctional Center, who physically constructed the Memorial.
The Nevada Vietnam Memorial today consists of five sculpted boulders, each containing a bronze plaque engraved with the names of Nevada’s Vietnam War dead and missing. The plaques are set in stone, and the memorial is surrounded by high-desert landscaping. A flag pole and the plaque from the first Mills Park memorial stand at the center. A sandstone bench, also made by Nevada State Prison inmates affiliated with Chapter 545, was dedicated on Veterans Day 2004 honoring women who served in the Vietnam War.
In 2012, Chapter 388 worked with the Carson City Parks and Recreation Department to restore and refurbish the Memorial.
