Vietnam Wall


Many of you have had the opportunity to visit the Vietnam Wall Memorial in Washington D.C. and know that it is a very emotional exhibit. I would like you to visit the online wall @ http://thewall-usa.com/index.asp#search or the virtual Vietnam Wall @
http://www.virtualwall.org/index.html

I would like you to search for someone's story by using your birthday (month, day, year would be from 1945-1950) on the first link or by your initials in the 2nd link. Your posting should simply look like this:
Soldier's Name
Hometown
Age at death
Year and reason (if listed) of death
Any story, fact or quote associated with that person.

You may have to search several names or cross-reference both sites to find out some personal information.

Do not repeat names, that is why I want you to use your initials or birthday.

All posts should be completed by Thursday, April 14th @ Midnight for full credit. Any posts after 4/14 will earn 1/2 credit.
