Put a Face with a Name is part of our national Call for Photos campaign to collect a picture for each of the more than 58,000 men and women whose names are inscribed on The Wall. 

These pictures will be used in the Education Center at The Wall and can be currently found on The Virtual Wall.  (Visit www.buildthecenter.org to learn more about what the Education Center will contain, what work remains to be done and how photos will be used.)

If you have a picture of a loved one or fellow veteran whose name is on The Wall, please help the Memorial Fund honor these individuals by putting a face with a name.  You may use any of the following methods to submit your photograph.

Using the Virtual Wall
Obtain a scan of the photograph (this can be done at many different locations such as CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, etc) with the highest quality setting possible.  From the VVMF.org website, click on the Virtual Wall tab and then search for the individuals name.  Once you locate the individual, click on their profile, and then post a remembrace.  Fill out the necessary information and then make sure select "Attach an Image from my computer".  Locate the scanned file on your computer and submit the remembrance.  If you chose to do so, an email will be sent that notifies you when the image has been posted to the individuals profile. 

Scan and upload the photograph from home 
On The Virtual Wall, find the servicemember's profile page and click on post a remembrance. Complete the required information and choose Attach an Image from my computer. Click on next step to review the remembrance before submitting it for approval.

E-mail your scanned image to the Memorial Fund
If you have a scanner at home, you can e-mail it as an attachment (jpg, jpeg or gif preferred) to vvmf@vvmf.org with the subject "Put a Face with a Name." In the body of the e-mail, be sure to include the servicemember's name, your name, a password and any other information you would like included in the remembrance.

Mail a copy of your photograph to the Memorial Fund
Make a copy of your photo. VVMF does not want original photos and cannot be responsible for returning photos to donors.  When having the photo copied, ask the photo professional to make it the highest quality possible, use a glossy finish and reproduce the photo at an 8 x 10 size, if possible.  Fill out the photo submission form and package it up for mailing with the copy of the photo. When mailing, please indicate on the front of the envelope that a photo is enclosed. Mail to:

Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund
