One of our very own RallyPoint Members SGT Derrick Evans, a Veteran from Dec 1983 to Dec 1987 has embarked on the mission of all missions. This mission has taken him over a year and half to assemble, by building on what the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund - Wall of Faces and various other volunteer organizations have done to date, he has created a central photo depository on the Interest Platform that will serve as an awesome tribute to the men and women whose names are enshrined on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington DC.

SGT Evans has put together a board on Pinterest that will, when completed, contain the pictures of the 58,282 warriors Killed in Action in the Vietnam War. He currently has assembled, gathered, hunted down, and retrieve over 30,000 photos to-date, but is missing approximately 28,282. The missing photos are filled with a picture of the American Flag and contain the name of the individual.

This is not a new project, but it is one that needs a massive volunteer effort to accomplish - all the missing photos that he retrieves; he will post on his Pinterest Board as well as on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund - Wall of Faces

Here is the link to his board, please take a look at the wonderful work he has done for our fallen brothers and sisters:

I was so inspired by the effort that SGT Evans has taken out of his personal time that I too felt compelled to offer my voluntary services to reach out to all my contacts in hopes of filling in those remaining American Flags with a photos that time will not forget.

There are a lot of veterans, active duty members, and retirees from all branches of the service on RallyPoint today. With such a network, it is not impossible for all of us to work together to fill in those blanks and put a picture and face to the fallen.

With the permission of RallyPoint, myself and SGT Evans I’m reaching out to all of you to lend a helping hand is this venture to find and secure these missing pictures, so we can compliment the Memorial Wall with pictures to be remember forever of those who made the ultimate sacrifice during the Vietnam War.

I know that I can count on the brother and sisters her on RallyPoint in to help reach out to all of your sources throughout the country to fill in the missing pictures!

Are you a Vietnam Veteran; are you a friend; are you a relative; are you a classmate of a Vietnam Veteran; or even a friend of a friend that knows a Vietnam Veteran? Do you have a photo of any of the KIA from the Vietnam War? In addition we are open to more ideas on where we can obtain these photos and on how we might be able to grow our volunteer force to accomplish this mission. Please visit the Pinterest Board and view the missing pictures and let us know if you or anyone you know might have a photo of the missing Vietnam Veteran (represented by the American Flag) please send to the following email address: [login to see] .

If you would like to sign up as a volunteer to assist with this project, please shoot us an email with your contact information to both [login to see] and [login to see] .

Thank you.
