Located near the Buffalo Naval and Serviceman's Park, this large polished granite monument features two quarter-circular walls that rise from the ground to approximately 12 feet in height. The walls are engraved with several quotes and other inscriptions, as well as the names of Western New York veterans killed during the Vietnam War. In the center of the semi-circular walls is a granite column with "Western New York Vietnam Veterans" and an image of a soldier and helicopter engraved on its top surface.
The monument's sculptor was Sirianni and the architect was Lawrence K. Moss.
