Military Yahrzeits

The National Museum of American Jewish Military History has a program that allows you to memorialize a fallen Jewish service member via the Yahrzeit Remembrance Program. They charge a fee of $100 to list your loved one on the site. Each yahrzeit includes a photo and a brief description of his or her service. The listing is shown on both the Jewish and standard calendar dates of his or her death.

I actually came across this while looking into creating something like this on JewsInGreen.

I wouldn’t be able to offer something as polished as the NMAJMH (with automatic listings and such), but we could create a list of names and dates of yahrzeits. If there is a significant interest in such a service I would like to do it, so leave a comment if you think this is a good (or bad) idea.
