      Thank you for sharing all of these wonderful portraits. I have looked through many of them and finally want to share my thoughts. We see a portrait of a man who had a name, a family and a story, but now all of his history is lost. I am quite saddened to see "Unidentified Soldier" under many of these portraits. From ashes we were made and unto ashes we shall return.
