About this episode

The episode explores the efforts of a veteran to honor the fallen soldiers of the 3rd Battalion, 12th Infantry Regiment in Vietnam.

The Braves of the 3rd Battalion, 12th Infantry Regiment fought a hard, largely unsung war in Vietnam's Central Highlands. Nearly 300 never came home, and most of their families received little more than a telegram — hardly enough to understand what happened. A veteran of the Iraq War has set out to fill that void: to visit every one of their graves and remember each as "more than just a name on The Wall."
