Junction City, Kansas is the home of the state memorial to those who were lost in 'Nam: 761 KIA, 38 MIA*.
Their names are all listed here and their faces are represented by these two etchings.
As always, I try to glean some meaning from the faces and these seems sad. Perhaps anticipating their roles on this memorial.
Next time, on the 15th, we will return to Maine, so meet me there at 9:00am.

* These numbers are those that I first used when writing about this site. Subsequent searches have turned up a number of widely varying numbers from a few more than 600 to almost 800, so I'll just stick with my originals.
