Felton has spent more than 20 years curating the objects left at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. A native to the District and a Vietnam veteran, he says people have come from across the globe to leave mementos. People can see some of the 100,000 items in the collection at the Smithsonian American History museum, where they are part of the exhibit, “The Price of Freedom.” What do you do with the objects left at the memorials?
We do exhibitions. We take care of these objects. We catalog them. We store them.
