Project Overview

Vietnam P.O.W Database

The names and records of military personnel returned alive after the Vietnam War are accessible through this interactive installation.

The Vietnam Prisoner-of-War database contains over 700 names and records of military personnel involved in this major conflict. The interactive installation allows visitors to search these personnel records according to name, home state, or branch of service. Part of the Public Vaults, the kiosk brings to light one of the types of records that the National Archives preserves.
