In just a few days, genealogy researchers will have a new online database to sample. On Wednesday, the National Archives and Footnote.com are slated to unveil a new interactive Vietnam War Memorial, complete with the largest photo of “The Wall” on the web.

According to a news release, the partnership involved extracting information from National Archives electronic records of each Vietnam casualty and linking it to each name on the Wall.

The casualty records are from the Combat Area Casualties Current File from the records of the Secretary of Defense and from Records with Unit Information on Military Personnel Who Died during the Vietnam War, from records that were donated to the National Archives by Richard Coffelt, Richard Arnold, and David Argabright.

In addition to the casualty records for these men and women, Footnote.com will be scanning National Archives photos and casualty reports from the Vietnam War.

Footnote.com has also incorporated social tools into this project, enabling visitors to search the Wall for names of people they knew and pay tribute by adding photos, comments and stories of those who lost their lives during the Vietnam War.

Look for links to the database on the Footnote.com and National Archives websites after Wednesday, March 26.
