Allamakee County Veterans Museum still in search of photos for its Wall of Honor

The Allamakee County Veterans Museum in Waukon is still in search of a number of photos to complete its Wall of Honor (pictured above) displayed inside the museum. Organizers of the Allamakee County Veterans Museum are seeking help from family members, friends and the general public in locating good quality photos of a number of Allamakee County Veterans who were Killed in Action (KIA) or held as Prisoners of War (POW) during World War I, World War II, the Korean War or the Vietnam War.

A full listing of the photos still needed for Allamakee County Veterans follows in this article. Anyone who has pictures of these men is encouraged to bring them to the museum or contact the museum by phone (563-568-2954) or by email message (info@allamakeehistory.org) so that arrangements can be made to make a copy that photo for this project:
