“We hope this is a way for anyone to share his or her memories of the 646 honored on our wall or tell us what the Memorial means to them. Veterans and others might find it interesting to share thoughts about the war and its aftermath. I think of it as a living testimony to those who served and sacrificed. I just finished reading the biographies of the 646 and was struck by the promise of dreams unfulfilled and what fine young men they were. We hope to get all the biographies on the web site for everyone to read. In the meantime, let's talk.”
