Sterling work. "The Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund (VVMF) is pleased to announce that North Carolina has become the 23rd state to find every photo for their Vietnam fallen. There are 1,612 service members from North Carolina listed on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and now each of them have their photo displayed on the Wall of Faces. VVMF’s Wall of Faces effort aims to connect a face and a story to each of the more than 58,000 names inscribed on The Wall in Washington, D.C. so that future generations will better understand the impact of the Vietnam War on American families. Each name represents a life cut short and a family changed forever by their loss. Putting a face to every name helps further preserve their legacies. VVMF has dedicated volunteers around the country who help locate photos of those who served and sacrificed. Two of these volunteers who were instrumental in completing North Carolina are Jim and Tom Reece, brothers from Wilmington. They have been involved with the photo collection effort since it began. Jim started by looking for photos of his high school classmates killed in Vietnam. Their work quickly broadened from Wilmington to the entire state of North Carolina and beyond.
