SKYPE session

Where did I SKYPE from today?

It was finished in 1982 and the wall is 

Made of black granite from India.  To create the memorial they had a design contest with over 14,000 entries.   

Who was the designer?  

Some people wanted more to the memorial than just the wall so in 1984 "Three Soldiers" was added as was the women's statue I showed you today.
