CALL FOR PHOTOS

Help VVMF and HISTORY® Honor Service Members Memorialized on The Wall

HISTORY is proud to join the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund’s (VVMF) Call for Photos, a nationwide campaign to collect a photograph for each of the 58,272 men and women whose names are inscribed on The Wall. Collected photographs, like the ones below, will be displayed in the future Education Center at The Wall and will also appear online on the VVMF’s Virtual Memorial Wall.



This October and November, HISTORY will host a series of Call for Photos events in New York City, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Chicago with VVMF to advance the collection of the more than 35,000 photos still needed to complete the display. Anyone with a photo of a service member listed on The Wall is urged to scan and submit their photo online or bring it to the event where it can be scanned.

Please join us at these Call for Photos events and help us put a face with a name.
