"Putting Faces to the Names On the Vietnam Memorial"

Great article the other day in the WaPo on a magnificent project, a labor of love, to put a face to every name on the Vietnam Memorial.

Forty years later, Martin is set to do one more thing for his long-lost Vietnam War buddy: At a ceremony at the Newseum, he will submit a plain black-and-white photo of Hagan in his Marine Corps officer’s uniform to a project that is collecting photographs of the 58,261 people whose names are etched on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.

The goal, Martin said, is a measure of immortality.

Indeed; a noble goal.
