Viet Nam Memorial.....find each person here
First click on a state. When it opens, scroll down to the city and the names will appear. Then click on their names. It should show you a picture of the person, or at least their bio and medals. If you don't know their city, click on the alphabet of the last name.
This really is an amazing web site. Someone spent a lot of time and effort to create it. I hope that everyone who receives this appreciates what those who served in Vietnam sacrificed for our country. The link below is a virtual wall of all those lost during the Vietnam war with the names, bio's and other information on our lost heroes. Those who remember that time frame, or perhaps lost friends or family can look them up on this site. Pass the link on to others, as many knew wonderful people whose names are listed!!!! Names of Vietnam War casualties by city and state www.VirtualWall.org xoxoxoo

I've seen it, too. A very emotional spot to visit.
Thanks, Bobby. Great find!

Bobby if you want to post them here just put them on an image host such as Photobucket - of you need me to do that for you I'd be happy to - just send me a PM for my email and we'll take care of it.

Francis Powers was a friend of the family Bobby's folks are reflected in the wall of this photo
