Sergeant Phillip's first name was spelled wrong in the Department of Defense database of Vietnam War casualties and on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington, DC. His name has been corrected in our own copy of the database and on The Virtual Wall® The Department of Defense needs to approve having his name corrected on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC and that has to be coordinated with the National Park Service, because the NPS maintains the Wall. If the DoD decides to make the correction, the correct spelling of Stephen's name will be etched on the Wall somewhere near where his name is now on line 39 of panel 2 East. The misspelled name will not be modified, since any form of modification would deface the Wall. Printed directories and databases will be changed to show only the line number and panel number of the new engraving. |
