Help Identify the Unknowns

For every one identified soldier photograph in existence, there are scores of images of unidentified men in uniform. Occasionally I am able to identify one of these unknowns — usually stumbling across an image as I pursue research on another soldier who is identified.

To help increase the odds of putting together names and faces, a new feature makes its debut on the site today: Unknown Soldiers: Can You Identify Them? Please spend some time perusing the thirty-image gallery. Please use the email link on each gallery page if you make a connection.

This is not an original idea. Civil War Mysteries has been around since 2000, and features numerous unidentified photos.

Hope to hear from you soon!
