EBPD: Low-Flying Aircraft Alert for Sunday and Monday at Traveling Vietnam Wall Site

EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ - The American Veterans Traveling Tribute (AVTT) Vietnam Wall is currently on display at the Community Arts Center (721 Cranbury Road) and is accessible to the public through Memorial Day, May 27, 2024.

The almost 400-foot-long AVTT Wall is an 80 percent scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., which contains every name etched on the original memorial. Accompanying the AVTT Wall are the Cost of Freedom tributes to every U.S. military action since World War I.

The East Brunswick Police Department is alerting residents of low-flying aircraft on Sunday (5/26) and Monday (5/27). The aircraft include helicopters and a fighter jet flyover. These are scheduled flyovers as part of the day’s events. "Don’t be alarmed!" says the EBPD.
