How to Submit a Photo
In an effort to further preserve the legacy of those who sacrificed all in Vietnam, VVMF is committed to finding a photo to go with each of the more than 58,000 names on The Wall. The Wall of Faces allows family and friends to share memories, post pictures and connect with each other. Collected pictures can be found on The Wall of Faces.
If you have a picture of a loved one or fellow veteran whose name is on The Wall, please help VVMF honor these individuals by putting a face with a name. Regardless of whether or not VVMF has a photo of the individual already, we encourage you to submit it anyway. We are trying to collect as many photos of each individual as possible.
