New Hampshire VIII

I began this post with the intention of honoring those from Canaan, New Hampshire who made the ultimate sacrifice in Vietnam.
 
I had identified five names from the memorial in Canaan as you can see below. As I started looking for their pictures on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund's (VVMF) pages, I soon learned that in fact, happily, only one of those listed had been lost: the others apparently served.

                                                                                   




These following two are among the several others who served. I will list and honor the remaining few at a later date.
 

 

I ask you to join me on the 16th of June when we will return to New Jersey, as always at 9:00 am.

If you are following along at all, you will have seen that a number of you, like Joan from Wisconsin, Tony from Texas, Mike from Maryland, Ron from Florida, Tim from Virginia, Molly from Florida, Colleen from Pennsylvania, Elli from Maryland, and Peg and Ray from Florida, among others, have responded to my request to send me memorials you have seen in your area or where you may have traveled. I even got one from Ireland! These submissions help expand the knowledge of how we have remembered the men and women who served and/or were lost in 'Nam and you help to honor them. If you have any such photos, I would love to see them. Please send them along to the email at the left and I will gladly share them here.

I hope all those listed here will encourage you to send along photos.
