The Walpole Peace and Justice Group is making a banner with the 2100 names (approx, from the list published Nov 26) of US soldiers killed in Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) on a field of stars. Shiela and Lois consider the banner fabric and structure; Paul arrives with David and the stars from the copier.
The ladies begin trimming the sheets; Barry steps in to supervise. Laying out the field of stars on the first two banners. Applying the names of the soldiers.
The stars and names on the first banner are finished and it looks really great. As we applied the names, Donna and I read them off -- click here to link to the database. 2330 coalition casualties as of today -- tho not all the names have been published. I'm very afraid we'll have to do some updates before we present the banners to the public.
