Troop Tributes

As Veterans Day draws near, we'd like to belatedly highlight an excellent project from The Denver Post. "Colorado's Fallen" by photographer Lyn Alweis shares the stories of the 12 servicemen from Colorado who had died as of Memorial Day in Iraq and Afghanistan. Alweis expertly mixes photographs, video and audio as she lets the family members of the troops describe their loved ones. The Web page allows you to click on the names of the servicemen to see their photos and hear their stories. It also has a map of the state where you can click on a town to learn about its troops killed in action. Thank you Emily Udell for this suggestion. www.denverpost.com/coloradosfallen
