Faces of Fallen Exhibit Extended—Again: The Women in Military Service Memorial in Arlington, Va., has extended the exhibit “Faces of the Fallen” through May 31. The exhibit, which already had been extended at least twice, features more than 1,300 portraits of American military men and women who have died fighting the war on terrorism. The memorial is across the street from the main gate of Arlington National Cemetery.
The U.S. military is maintaining a beefed-up presence in the Middle East, including fighters and air defense assets, following the U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities June 22 and subsequent retaliation by the Iranians against Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar.
