The names of 22 Vietnam War fatalities will be added to the more than 50,000 already chiseled into the granite wall, Vietnam Veterans Memorial officials said. The 22 names were received from relatives or friends of casualties, said Bonnie Fairbrother, an administrator for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund. While most of the 22 died during or soon after combat, six have died within the last two years from wounds suffered in wartime attacks.
