Kristin fisher kicks off our memorial day coverage from the white house. Good evening. Behind the scenes, the controversy surrounding Jared Kushner is taking up a loss of oxygen here at the white house. Today President Trump reserved all of his public remarks and almost all of his tweets for the men and women who died defending the country. The commanderinchief visiting section 60 of Arlington National cemetery, the section where u. S. Military members killed in iraq and afghanistan are buried. There families standing over their tombstones and sharing their stories. He said i hope people dont forget i lived. If you could remember jimmy, that would mean so much. It would mean so much to me. We cannot know the extent of your pain. What we do know is that our gratitude to them and to you is boundless and undying. After laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown soldier, President Trump paid tribute to his Homeland Security secretary whose son died fighting for the marine corps and afghanistan. He understands more than most ever could or ever will. The wounds and burdens of war. Yesterday, it was secretary kellys turn to defend the president s soninlaw Jared Kushner against allegations he attempted to establish a secret back channel with the kremlin. Any channel of communication with a country like russia is a good thing. Secretary kelly wouldnt confirm it but he didnt deny it either, saying if kushner tried to set up a secret line to russia that its normal, acceptable and not that big a deal. Republican senator john mccain disagreed. My view visit i dont like it. I just i know some Administration Officials are saying its standard procedure. I dont think its standard procedure. Catherine herridge reporting that a source argues it was the russian who first raised the issue not kushner and that it was only discussed for a single call about syria. Not as a permanent back channel. The Washington Post alleges it was. Senator Lindsey Graham says he doesnt trust it. I think it makes no sense that the Russian Ambassador would report back to moscow on a channel he most likely knows we are monitoring. The whole story line is suspicious. The negative press is casting a shadow over a Senior Advisor once thought untouchable. The white house insists any change will be about adding to the team, not getting rid of people already in the west wing. President trump told the New York Times last night that he has total confidence in kushner but democratic congressman adam schiff is now calling for his security clearance to be reviewed. You have to ask, who are they hiding their conversations from . Thats the question Jared Kushner will almost certainly be asked if he testifies on capitol hill. Tonight, a source close to kushner says hes eager to do so. James. James kristin fisher, thank you. The president wasted little time returned to the twitter verse, his aim in part to present an optimistic view of his ability to enact his policy agenda on capitol hill. Doug mckelway reports on the president s prospects for success on that front. Hoping to carryover some momentum from what many regard as a mostly successful first foreign trip as president , donald trump is preparing to again tackle domestic policy in the socalled swamp of washington. You notice how much stronger where getting . It wont be easy. His domestic agenda reremains under attack. Fiscal year ending september 30, the clock is an enemy too. Not all of those things are going to get done. A fractured Republican Party adding to the insecurity. The house will have its own bill. Complicating a lack of a health care message, the president s freelance tweeting continued last night with suggest we add more dollars to health care and make it the best anywhere. Obamacare is dead. The republicans will do much better. Thats a tough sell. Republicans remain divided over the president s budget, chairman of the Senate Armed Services committee noting mr. Trumps long held promise of rebuilding the military fall short. It does not rebuild the military. It doesnt give us the ships in the numbers of personnel we need in the capabilities. While democrats hammer the budget from the other side. I do not believe we make America Great again by cutting medical research to the lowest level in 12 years. I dont think you make America Great again by saying to working families its more expensive now for your kids to borrow money for student loans. You certainly dont make us a great nation by cutting back on infrastructure. Those three things are in the trump budget. Accused of a morally bankrupt budget, the president s budget point man fired back. Right now my unborn grandchildren are paying for it and i think thats morally bankrupt. Congress reconvenes the week of june 5, with another weeklong break for the fourth of july and a six week long august recess. Not a lot of time to handle a calendar that is chockfull of major legislation. James doug, thank you. Germanys foreign minister said today President Trumps policies are shortsighted and have weakened the west. It is the latest criticism of the american leader from europeans who have begun, and on their neighbors to stand on their own. He challenged europe to accept more responsibility and following President Trumps first overseas trip, european leaders appear to have received the message. Translator the times in which we can fully count on others are somewhat over, as i have experience in the past few days. A trip that began in the kingdom of saudi arabia at ended with a scolding of european democracies. Any speech last week, the president chided allies for failing to meet agreedupon spending guidelines. That the 28 nato members would spend at least 2 of the size of their economies on defense. Only five do so. Other member nations must pay more. The u. S. Is currently paying much more than any other nation. And thats not fair to the United States or the United States taxpayer. President trump failed to mention the u. S. Commitment to article five, a section of the treaty stating an attack on one nato country is an attack on all. Senior Administration Officials later confirmed the u. S. Is committed to nato and its defense. Angela merkel says europeans will maintain friendships with United States and great britain, even as the United Kingdom negotiates its withdrawal from the european union. Though shes encouraging stronger euro. Translator we have to note we have to fight for our future and our fate ourselves as europeans. The president also shared intense lengthy handshake with newly elected french president Emmanuel Macron, he told the french publication, my handshake with President TrumpPresident Trump was not innocent, not the alpha and omega of a policy. But a moment of truth. We must show we will not make small concessions, even symbolic months. President trump says he will decide this week whether he will withdraw the u. S. From the Paris Agreement on climate change. Angela merkel says the g7 conversation with President Trump on that topic amounted to six against one. James. James rich edson, thank you. Its becoming almost a weekly exercise and cement we are again confronted with a north Korean Missile test, one that could bring the communist regime closer to its goal of attaining a nuclear weapon. Lucas tomlinsons live at the pentagon with details on the latest. Good evening. U. S. Officials say the missile splashed down 240 miles from japan after first reaching outer space. Its north koreas third consecutive missile test in three weekends going back to mothers day. Yesterday, defense secretary jim mattis says its not just the missiles hes concerned about. The north korean regime has hundreds of artillery cannons and rocket launchers within range of one of the most densely populated cities on earth. The capital of south korea. The bottom line is it would be catastrophic if this turns into combat. Fox news has learned that a separate test this week and involving surfacetoair missile called the cayenne oh six kn06. U. S. Officials say a mig fighter jet crashed near the launch sit site. At this time, what we know i prefer to keep silent about because we may know some things the North Koreans dont even know. What keeps you awake at night . Nothing. I keep other people awake at night. The pentagon has doubled its firepower in the region. The Ronald Reagan strake group, joining the uss carl vinson. James, the pentagon is conducting a missile test of its own. Missile Defense Agency will launch an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile from the Marshall Islands into space and attempt to shoot it down from an interceptor from a base in california. James Lucas Tomlinson at the pentagon. Thank you. Growing concern over north Koreas Nuclear ambitions prompting lawmakers to rethink a decadesold law that effectively barred authorities from preparing for the unthinkable. Diane spring reports that many find the law unsinkable. Emergency planners in hawaii prepare a response to a nuclear attack, possible target on the west Coast Washington allows evacuation plans for every scenario except a nuclear bomb. Sending a message that if youre getting ready to do something to do something yourself. The law passed in 1984. It was the opposite approach taken by president reagan, whose peace through strength dr. And helped lead to the collapse of the soviet union. Current senator says the washington law is naive. Its ridiculous and silly. It is a head in the sand mentality. Seattle could be in the crosshairs of kim jongun ever did the impeccable. Naval base pass on 1300 nuclear warheads, nearly a quarter of the countrys arsenal and the largest stockpile of new and the world. Its also home to a major army base, a hightech hub, and the closest major u. S. Cities or north korea. The states top emergency planners as the current law is no big deal. We do not have a specific plan for nuclear attack, nor do we have a specific plan for a volcano or a number of other types of hazards. He says he needs to spend resources on prepping for the most likely disasters. There would be overlap in the response for an earthquake or dirty bomb attack. Military experts believe north korea is still at least three years away from having the capability to hit the west coast with a bomb. Its got the attention of west coast lawmakers who have introduced a bill that would scrap the current restrictions and allow for the planning to save as many lives as possible. James dan springer. More arrests in more selfexamination in england, a week after the deadly bombing in manchester. Senior Foreign Affairs correspondent greg palkot is in london. A week after the brutal bombing at the Manchester Arena left over 100 injured and killed 22, the investigation is intensifying. Police revealing new images of the 22yearold bomber, british libyan salman abedi before the attack. Here he is shown with a suitcase which might or might not contain explosive material. Police searched a landfill near manchester. Their fears and other bomb could be out there. In the southern u. K. , a man reportedly ran a libyan based website was arrested, bringing to 14 held by police. Perhaps part of a Network Supporting the attacker. This is still a live operation. Investigators are being investigated. Looking at how the attacker slipped through the officials net. Sky news reporting that officials were alerted three times that salman abedi was a possible risk. Someone assesses the risk, whether or not that person, what stage they are in the radicalization process and what stage they are moving towards terrorism. This is a long Holiday Weekend in the u. K. Too. Events in manchester, including a half marathon, involving 40,000 runners, went ahead, a sign of defiance. The victims of the attack are remembered. 52 remain hospitalized, many killed or heard were children or teenagers. Come down and pay your respects and have a moment. The Terror Threat has been downgraded to severe, some 1,000 British Police and counterterrorism officials are hard at work making sure this to herself and doesnt strike again. James greg palkot in london. When we come back, bret baier talks with the head of the Veterans Affairs department about whats being done to improve medical care for americas heroes. And how military spouses are getting back to work from home base. The future isnt silver suits and houses on mars, its right now. Think about it. We can push buttons and make cars appear out of thin air. Find love anywhere. Hes cute. And buy things from, well, everywhere. How . Because our phones have evolved. So isnt it time our networks did too . Introducing americas largest, most reliable 4g lte combined with the most wifi hotspots. Its a new kind of network. Xfinity mobile. James a u. S. Navy seal is being mourned after his death yesterday. The seal, who is not yet been identified, served on a parachute team. His parachute failed to open over the hudson river during fleet week. An effort to help military spouses while taking care of things on the home front. She is a military wife but she also had a career. Was a lobbyist in wisconsin. Graduated college and received a law degree. She has moved 11 times in 14 years. This is our second time in germany. We moved to missouri and then germany. All of these locations of remote and i realized, work wasnt going to be an option. 2012 study found 42 of military spouses, mostly women, not in the labor force. Searle says often its because they dont have a choice. Its been harder to find work because youre overqualified. The best option showed up online. I started working remotely for a few companies and realized that was how i was going to be able to maintain employment. She also realized she wasnt alone. Literally hundreds and thousands of military spouses. She decided to do something. Three years ago she created Company Called americas career force, the idea to connect and terry spouses with Companies Looking for workers. There is usually a remote job in every company but its not often advertised. We suffer sometimes in silence and the easiest thing is remote work and if more employers would open their doors to that and look to americas career force for that candidate pool, it would be incredible. The first family seems to be noticing what shes up to. Ivanka trump posted about the organization on her personal websites. James allison barber. Thank you. Memorial day commemorates those who died in service to our country, there is great concern on this holiday, indeed every day, for the veterans who live among us, especially those with Serious Health issues. Bret baier sat down with the man whose job it is to see that those needs are addressed. Mr. Secretary, thank you for the time. Memorial day, do you have a message for the men and women of the u. S. Military . Its an important reflection for our country. I think about the families that are going to be visiting our national cemeteries. With less than 1 of americans serving in the military, i think we owe those that serve a great deal of gratitude and reflect on the memory of those who have given their lives for our country. You have a big job. Have things changed . Are you seeing change . Im optimistic. I am a doctor. I like to put things in clinical terms. We are monitoring things closely. I am optimistic we are beginning to deal with the issues that have plagued the va system for decades. Have you seen wait times change . We have. Were seeing an improvement. Our job is not done but we have Sameday Services for primary care and Mental Health in every one of our vas. We have published our wait time. We are working diligently to make sure nobody who has an Urgent Medical need is waiting for care. How did you do it . Did you do something secretary mcdonald was not doing . We are doing a lot of different things. We are hiring more people, making sure the leadership knows what the job is and they are focused on it and by publishing our wait times and making them open, its a way of fixing our system and making sure people know we are focused on the right things. You just fired the head of the d. C. Va hospital. In april, you fired the head of the shreveport va. Is it easier to fire people when you find out agree just things are happening . It is still too hard to make sure that when our leadership loses its way that we are able to remove them from service. We do need legislation to help me do the job that the American People want me to do. The house passed a bill. We are looking forward to the senate introducing the bill in the next few weeks so that we can get the authorities we need. Do you know how many people you fired . Stick i dont keep track of the number. I make sure that when i find the situation where somebody has deviated from our values that they no longer are in the va system. What is the biggest problem. If you were to boil it down, whats the biggest problem . The biggest problem is the va has failed to modernize when the rest of health care has been actively changing and evolving. We are hard at work making those decisions. The president s budget that was given to us allows us the resources to invest and making the va system we are proud of. Taking a look at the budget, 4. 3 billion, roughly 5. 8 . That scene is a plus. However without, comes some changes that are not welcome. The American Legion is ripping the budget, saying that the budget would lower the earnings of most vulnerable veterans by reducing or eliminating disability payments from veterans for most in in need. They are talking about the effort to change what in essence is the unemployment payments. Well, look, i have a great deal of respect for organizations that serve veterans like the American Legion and i take their concerns seriously. But lets remember the budget the president put forward is a big increase and provides more resources of the va variable we are doing is, we are also looking at our current programs and making sure that we are revising them one week think theres opportunity to shift resources to help more veterans. In the case of on employment, this is a program that doesnt have an end to the age limit. We are currently paying 7,000 veterans for unemployment above the age of 80 years old. We think its appropriate to take a look, can we do it better so we can shift resources, and not take them away, to other veterans. Is the system overloaded with noncombat veterans . Right now, we are providing care to every combat veteran after they leave the service, but the majority of our veterans that we serve are in older age groups, particularly the Vietnam Veterans, average age, 60 or 70 years old. The older they get, they need more Health Care Services group we are dealing with an older veteran population. Its been two years since Congress Passed a major bill to reform the va system. Did it work . I think the bill Congress Passed did work. It provided us the opportunity to get veterans who are waiting for care out into the community and now onethird of the care we deliver is outside the va system. We do need congress to help us in revising the system to make it work even better for veterans. If were going to fix the system, its going to be in partnership with the president s leadership and a partnership with congress. Is part of that giving vouchers for private coverage, for private health care . What ive said is what we learned in the last crisis from 2014 is that the va needs to get better but i cant do it alone. The system thats going to work best for veterans is an integrated system between the va system, a strong va system working with the private sector. Where do you put the number for suicides . My single clinical priority is to reduce veteran suicide. Today unfortunately we have 20 veterans a day who are taking their life through suicide. That is completely unacceptable. 20 a day. Of those, about six are getting care in the va system on 14 are out in the community. I worry most about those that arent getting the care they need, so this is something that Suicide Prevention is everybodys problem here and we need to work with community groups, family members, veterans, veterans organizations, to make sure we are getting veterans the care they need. Theres a lot of important jobs in government but yours may be most important, especially as we look at it on memorial day. James and now a correction to a correction i offered on this program on friday. Lastly, we reported on recently declassified documents in which the fisa court admonished the fbi for violations of amendment rights. I made two errors. I fed the website broke the story and that the New York Times and the Washington Post hadnt covered it. My last attempt at a correction didnt do it justice. In fact it was the New York Times who first broke the violations in an exclusive published april 28. The Washington Post followed the next day with an article that cited the times reporting. Then on may 11, after the Court Documents were declassified on the website of the office of director of national intelligence, Charlie Savage reported again for the times, including quotations from the fisa documents. I regret those errors. Police in portland say the man suspected of fatally stabbing two bystanders who rushed to the aid of two young women was involved in two incidents earlier. Jeremy christian is accused of killing two men friday. Police say his victims were standing up for two women under verbal assault by christian.

From your first sunrise to the sunset of life, we are with you through lifes journey. Social security securing today and tomorrow. Visit socialsecurity. Gov this video produced at u. S. Taxpayer expense. To have the president s soninlaw a key player in the Trump Organization trying to establish a back channel with the russians through a russian diplomatic facility, you have to ask, who are they hiding the conversations from . Multiple ways to communicate back and forth is a good thing with any country, particularly a country like russia. This is a rumor at this point and whether its something should be followed up on, i trust bob muellers judgment. I dont trust this story as far as i can throw it. James reaction to a Washington Post story that broke on friday reporting that Jared Kushner sought to create a secure back channel line to the kremlin source is telling Catherine Herridge the russians raised the issue is a onetime event, not a permanent hotline. Charles lane, mollie hemingway, and syndicated columnist charles krauthammer. I want lindsay here. I dont trust the story. The russians are masters of disinformation. It already has washington with its knickers in a twist. Someone is going to get a hernia here. We have no idea if its true. Lets say it is true. It wasnt the problem here the accusation here that there was some collusion during the campaign with the russians . Everyone agrees that the story is true it occurred after the campaign during the transition. So unless there is some nefarious connection, there is no connection to what was alleged to have happened during the campaign. Lastly, weve had back channel connections with adversaries for generations prayed Henry Kissinger had them with the russians and the chinese. Hillary had the back channel to establish negotiations and what ended up as the Iranian Nuclear deal. James and barack obama with cuba. And negotiations occurred in secret, negotiations with cuba. This happens all the time. I dont quite understand where is the crime other than its another piece that has a russian in the headlines. Trump people in the headlines and thus it is supposed to be scandalous. Show me. We should point out mr. Kushner has not been accused of any formal crime and indeed he has pledged to cooperate. President trump was quick to his defense. Jared is doing a great job for the country. I have total confidence in him. The president tweeted hes a very good person. But is he now ability always halftruths, and frequently incorrect. They use this to prove a point theyve already concluded that donald trump is a traitor in the white house. If this is even true, such communications are quite common. President barack obama before he was elected send an advisor to iran to set up a back channel, sworn enemy of the United States. Somehow the media were able to handle that information without using your mind but here were supposed to leave this believe this is quite nefarious. There is a lot of miss information floating. We have to be careful about the veracity of information. Unless i missed it, the white house has not denied this story. James Catherine Herridge that it wasnt his idea. That is different. Let me explain. I agree with the people who have said we dont know enough. Its a sketchy scenario. But it isnt true that its total units have been collusion during the election, this kind of special favoritism toward russia could be the consequence of some sort of collusion and cooperation between these two people. Part of the reason people are suspicious about this is that President Trump, throughout his campaign, for extremely mysterious reasons, preferring one leader out of all the leaders in the whole world that he constantly praised, constantly touted asic potential american ally and have no criticism about whatsoever and there was Vladimir Putin of russia. That outstanding fact separated him from the other candidates. Its a mysterious fact. The Conspiracy Theory hangs on the word code. It could indicate there was collusion during the campaign. It could. It could also indicate that anything is possible they could have invented show me the connection. We need more information. Donald trump repeatedly said throughout the campaign he looked for opportunities to work with russia just because he doesnt share everybody elses hysteria about a country that is not just a superpower but a Nuclear Superpower and one that you do need to have some relationship with, doesnt mean that its nefarious. A country that is trying to destroy our traditional allies, persecutes homosexuals. James he said it was possible he wouldnt get along with Vladimir Putin. The irony is that relations have not been good. James headline in the New York Times today that states a constitutional puzzle can the president be indicted . Chuck, is that fit to print . I honestly didnt read the story. Its an old conundrum of constitutional law. James should be on the front page of the New York Times . Im going to say, since i didnt read the story, im not going to give you an opinion on live television. James do you believe they should be reporting on the front page on day 140, can the president be indicted. Again, im not going to go there because im not going to question the judgment of the New York Times. We have 30 seconds. Seems to assume a crime. Whats the crime . I think a lot of people are wondering about the issue. I would put it to you that way. James people wear . In america. In newsrooms. In the rest of the country, people want journalists to get a grip. James here we have the president of the United States and the questions being raised by the leading newspaper in the country as to whether or not he could be indicted in the subtext is eminently. I already told you i didnt read the story so i dont know what the text was, let alone the subtext. James stay where you are a corrupt panel. We will be back. The president made quite an impression overseas paired was a impression overseas paired was a positive . You wont see these folks at the post office. Impression overseas paired was a positive . They have businesses to run. Have passions to pursue. How do they avoid trips to the post office . Stamps. Com mail letters, ship packages,. O stamps. Com tv and never go to the post office again. This is exactly what putin is trying to do. Its the kind of declaration of independence on the part of Angela Merkel and its good news. It basically means europe will be taking more responsibility for its own security. This seems alarming because it changes and arrangements weve had in place since world war ii but youve got to realize that the underlying logic of those arrangements has gone away. James some of the sights and sounds following President Trumps return from his first foreign trip. We are back with the panel. Today is not only memorial day. It is the 100th anniversary of john f. Kennedys birth. When he took office, one of the first things he did was reach out and assure our western european allies in his inaugural address by saying the United States would pay any price, bear any burden. You know that well. To assure the survival and success of liberty in that speech was aimed very much at west germany, france, great britain. Today we have a president who says its unfair to the american taxpayer to pay for nato. This tremendous historic shift in tone is now having consequences. Obviously the circumstances, underlying strategic considerations have changed since kennedys time but the Huge Investment over generations in this relationship has paid rich dividends in securing freedom for both sides of the atlantic and i think we are all at risk to see that liquidated. James the president tweeting on sunday quote just returned from europe, trip was a Great Success for america. Hard work but big results. Interesting he was able to accomplish it. One state Department Person in place which speaks to weather may be that bureaucracy isnt quite as good at handling these things as may be some people who have a different take on a parade also i think with the Angela Merkel thing, that was a little bit over interpreted. She had many caveats and how she talked about the changes in the relationship and its common sense. Obviously nato countries need to take more responsibility for their own defense. They need to allocate resources more toward a defense posture. Thats only right and responsible for leaders parade also i think the media take a little bit too much interest in what the politicians are saying, foreign leaders. They give them a difference they wouldnt give a u. S. Politician not named barack obama. Angela merkel obviously understands she can use trump as an antiimmigration foil. She has unpopularity problems. James to the extent that chancellor merkel was throwing shade, after all, candidate trump on the campaign trail had a few things to say about Angela Merkel. Hillary clinton wants to be americas Angela Merkel. And you know what a disaster this massive immigration has been to germany and the people of germany. Whats happening in germany, i always thought merkel was a great leader. What shes done is insane. Insane. James charles krauthammer, i remember after the inaugural address, that you made a point similar to what chuck lane just was. In essence, you saw the president basically saying the postwar era is over. We are not the u. S. Of the Marshall Plan anymore. Do you see he is followed through on that . I think so and i was not a fan of the inaugural address. I think its a huge mistake on our part and i think we will rue the day we began to encourage this rift, trump encouraging the rift. Yes, we want the europeans to take more responsibility but in the end, the germans, the estonians, the latvians are not going to hold off the russians. This is all about russia, the first secretarygeneral of nato said the purpose of nato is to take the keep the russians , American Income and germany down. What trump doesnt understand is that we didnt do the Marshall Plan or nato, 70 years of leading the largest free Nation Alliance out of a sense of altruism. Point was to be the leaders of a block which we are which is prosperous, free and it lightens the load. If we had to defend ourselves in the soviet era into vacancy russians and chinese and iranians all by ourselves, it would be insupportable. Alliances multiply our strength and to the extent that we alienate them as trump did in his speech at nato, its a detriment to our national security. James the newly elected french president Emmanuel Macron spoke about the handshake and said my handshake with him wasnt innocent. Its not the beall and endall of the policy. It was a moment of truth. Chuck lane, do you think european leaders are implacably opposed to working with donald trump or do you think there was room for him to accomplish some things with people like macron . I thought the quote from president macron was a wonderful example of french political rhetoric. It sounds portentous, you know it means something but you cant tell what. My best guess is that its a combination of what mollie and charles just said. What merkel is doing is both real and to her advantage because trump is so unpopular. Macron, same way. By distancing himself, he helps himself. James when we come back, an effort to put faces to the names of those we lost in vietnam. Pressure. I feel it everyday. But at night, its the last thing on my mind. For 10 years my tempurpedic has adapted to my weight and shape, relieving pressure points from head to toe. So i sleep deeply and wake up ready to perform. Now through june 11th, save 600 when you buy select tempurpedic Adjustable Mattress sets. Find your exclusive retailer at tempurpedic. Com. James finally, on this memorial day, and effort, heroic on its own terms, to put faces to the names etched on one of the capitals most frequently visited war monuments. He was correspondence. More than 58,000 names are on the Vietnam Memorial wall, including james walter. There. His four sister, he is much more than just a name. He was a dogooder. James was a very spiritual, even though he was young. He always treated me with affection. He was a football star. He loved chocolate cake and has most prized possession was his 1957 chevrolet. Those kinds of things that make a person who he is, you cant know for my name on a wall. If that is they Vietnam Veterans memorial has created a wall of faces. You have to bring mental life to people to understand the impact. 58,000 names, that is 58,000 lives cut short. Dreams unfulfilled, families that were forever changed. To speak of more than 5. 5 millin visitors come to the wall on any given day on an end and given day, you can see those who were still impacted by vietnam. Eventually, they Vietnam Veterans fund, hopes to open a two story wall of faces. While the fund has been raising money for the project, it has collected photographs of nearly every Service Member killed in vietnam. But there are still thousands of pictures missing. We still have about 6,600 to go. We need help from volunteers around the country to help find those last photos. Speak up for the sisters, there is no better way to honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice and ensuring they are remembered as more than just a name. That was my by putting the vases out there, other people knowing about it, wow. When i am proud, i want you to know about it. I want you to know about it. It makes a difference. In washington, i am garrett, fox news. James thank you for spending part of your memorial day with us this evening.
