Four Mid-Missouri veterans added to Faces project

Another four Central Missouri servicemembers have had photos posted at the Faces Never Forgotten project, honoring their ultimate sacrifice serving their country during the Vietnam War.

The News Tribune reported July 7 that 24 area soldiers, Marines and airmen were among the names without photos at www.vvmf/Wall-of-Faces.

Since then, 11 photos have been uploaded.

Missourians whose names are etched on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., number 1,411. And 659 of those await photos, too.

Victor Cassmeyer Jr., Robert Harris, Billy Blacksten and Samuel Roberson now will be remembered through this Vietnam Veterans Memorial Foundation project.

Family or friends with photos of the remaining Mid-Missouri servicemembers are invited to upload their image directly to the website.

A list of the remaining Mid-Missouri soldiers awaiting photos can be found at www.vvmf.org/Wall-of-Faces
