There are 1,244 Wisconsinites listed on the Vietnam War Memorial Wall in Washington, D.C. You can help put a face to these names and honor those who lost their lives by joining the effort to collect and preserve photographs of every service member whose name appears on "the Wall."
Wisconsin Public Radio, Wisconsin Public Television, Milwaukee Public Radio and Milwaukee Public Television are partnering with Wisconsin veterans organizations and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund to find a photo of every Wisconsin service man or woman listed on the Wall.
The images will become part of the "Wall of Faces" -- a lasting tribute planned for the Vietnam Memorial Education Center near the mall in the nation's capital.
WPR will promote the effort through statewide broadcasts, online outreach and community engagement activities until photos have been found for each of the Wisconsin service people on the Wall.
Visit the "Virtual Wall" and learn more about this project and how you can help by going this website.
