    A parametrically forced sine-Gordon equation with a fast periodic {\em mean-zero} forcing is considered. It is shown that π\pi-kinks represent a class of solitary-wave solutions of the equation. This result is applied to quasi-one-dimensional ferromagnets with an easy plane anisotropy, in a rapidly oscillating magnetic field. In this case the π\pi-kink solution we have introduced corresponds to the uniform ``true'' domain wall motion, since the magnetization directions on opposite sides of the wall are anti-parallel. In contrast to previous work, no additional anisotropy is required to obtain a true domain wall. Numerical simulations showed good qualitative agreement with the theory.Comment: 3 pages, 1 figure, revte
