West Virginia XXI

So, this post will exhaust my faces from Morgantown High School. There are seventeen in all and these are the last two.

Each of them "gave all" for their country and represent, here, all from west Virginia. West Virginia lost the most, per capita, of any state and their efforts will always be honored by A Means to Heal and hopefully all who see these pages: and all others.

One of West Virginia's 9 Medal of Honor recipients is among these seventeen and he can be seen here in one of the several posts from this site.

 

Next time, on the 31st, we will return to Wisconsin, so join me there, as usual, at 9:00 am.

To see additional memorials from West Virginia, or any other state, please click a state name on the left side of this page.

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 and Molly from Florida 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 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. Thanks, once again, to all who have contributed.
