MUNNSVILLE --
At Stockbridge Valley High School, volunteers are doing last minute work on flags, flowers and the walkways that will survive the Vietnam Moving Wall. 

After two and a half years of negotiating and making arrangements, the Wall arrives in Munnsville on Thursday morning.
Tom Hollingsworth, president of the Munnsville American Legion, says a motorcycle escort will bring the wall convoy to the school early in the morning, and they'll do set-ups through the day, with actual opening ceremonies on Thursday at 6pm. 

The wall will be open for visits until 3:30pm Monday afternoon.   Hollingsworth knows veterans will come, but he hopes younger people will, as well, to learn more about the Vietnam era.
