Have you seen this Veteran?

I was particularly moved to paint this guy's face after seeing him at attention during the Inauguration last week.
I would really like to track him down. Does anyone here know him?

It was suggested that I post here

more about him and maybe somebody here can help.

7. I read your original thread, and looked for 2 hours online at Inaugural pics on Yahoo.

I could not find him. I tried.

It is a compelling portrait. Well Done Mimitabby.

8. Remarkable

I recall seeing him during the inauguration, but have no idea who he is or what his story is. I, too, would like to know.

I get a sense he is one of the nameless, faceless, forgotten Viet Nam vets still walking our streets, waiting to be able to go home.

Your picture is very moving for me. Haunting.
