Names Erode at Virginia War Memorial Shrine of Memory
Richmond AP report notes 11 631 Virginians are listed on the Virginia War Memorial walls for World War II Korea Vietnam and the Persian Gulf War. About 100 names are barely readable due to weathering with stains marring the marble and the Memory statue. Memorial executive director Jon Hatfield says a $400 000 state funded renovation will include repainting names and gold stars. Wise County families seek unreadable Wise veteran names amid the wear.
