The project was built with donated material and labor and is the first of its kind in the history of the United States to give honor to our fallen by name, while a conflict is ongoing. The names on the wall represent our fallen heroes from such diverse locations as Panama, Lebanon, the Balkans, Grenada, Somalia, Haiti, USS Cole, USS Stark, Terrorist attacks in Italy, Greece, Scotland, and the current conflicts in the Middle East.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Our Gold Star Mom, Denise, forwarded this on to us.
