Charles Paul of Norway, who served 25 months in Vietnam and has worked with the Lewiston Auburn Veterans Council for the past seven years, is leading the effort to place a granite monument in the park that overlooks the Great Falls between Lewiston and Auburn.
“I’ve traveled around to see what other veteran organizations have done in the state,” Paul said. “Lewiston-Auburn doesn’t have a Vietnam War memorial in the park. It’s time for me to turn my actions onto deeds.”
