"Vera" is a song by the English rock band Pink Floyd which appears as the seventeenth track on their 1979 rock opera The Wall. The song's title is taken from the British singer Vera Lynn, who became a famous symbol of World War II with songs such as "We'll Meet Again" and "The Little Boy that Santa Claus Forgot", the former of which is directly alluded to in "Vera" whereas the latter is used at the beginning of the film adaptation of The Wall.
