Not that the US government has anything to do with the My Lai Peace Park Project, but the Quakers in Wisconsin do!

On March 16, 1998, the 30th Anniversary of the massacre at My Lai a simple groundbreaking was held at the site of the future My Lai Peace Park. After the extensive ceremonies at the My Lai Memorial we all then walked a mile or so the site of the My Lai Peace Park. Speeches were then given by Vietnamese officials and Mike Boehm expressing the hope for a peaceful future relationship between our two countries which this new Peace Park represents. After that Hugh Thompson, Larry Colburn and our Vietnamese counterparts, planted Mango trees, new life to arise out of death.
Kamome, don't fret Jack. He's just jealous there's not a memorial for all the chicks he's banged.. Oh, wait!.. There is! Sayonara to all Japanese Girls
