1. Salute To Our Contributors
==========================================================

We've been online now since February 1995, one of the
longest running websites on the Internet.

And it is all due to our faithful Members and Sponsors who
have helped us to provide free access to the Korean War
Project for over six years. It has not been easy! We now
have thousands of visitors seaching for all types of information.

Our full Membership List is located at:

https://www.koreanwar.org

Our Membership Renewals are located at:

https://www.koreanwar.orgmember_renew.cfm

==========================================================
2. Membership Drive
==========================================================

We only need 3000 new Members to reach our goal of 5000,
the number of Members necessary to guarantee the
survival of the Korean War Project.

The Finding The Families Project started in May has
resulted in hundreds of contacts with family members
and hundreds of DNA samples taken by all military
services.

The Korean War Project is free to all visitors, but our
members keep us online.

If you are not a member, please consider joining. It only
costs $15.00 per year and helps keep the Korean War Project
online.

6. Our Projects
==========================================================
Our main project these days is Finding The Families: The Search
for Korean War MIA/POW Family DNA. The DNA search also helps
us find family members to add additional information to our Remembrance
area. Our contacts at the Department of Defense tell us we helped with
DNA in many cases

Still a possible dream is the Traveling Korean War Memorial. We are
continuing to try to find a sponsor for this worthy endeavor.
