ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHS

The majority of the 131 photographs appearing on www.soldiersmeanmore.com were obtained from the websites maintained by our nation’s armed forces. The photographers who took these pictures have done an excellent job capturing not only the action of war, but also the many emotions that soldiers and their families experience. Often, the photographers must place themselves in harm’s way to capture the perfect image. Their work documenting history is important. Credit for each photograph appearing on this website – starting with the first photo showing a helicopter with a flag hanging from it – is as follows:
