UWM Students On Finding Missing Vietnam Vet Photos

Tom Luljak, Tyler Nelson, Jessica McBride, Rachel Maidl

Today with communication tools like Facebook and Google, it is easy to forget that not long ago finding personal information about someone could be challenging. On this edition of UWM Today, we have a detective story related to the absence of easily obtained information. It involves a group of journalism students and their teacher who set out in search of photographs of some of our country's fallen heroes.

Joining us on the program are Jessica McBride, senior lecturer in the department of Journalism, Advertising and Media Studies, and two of her students Rachel Maidl and Tyler Nelson.

Tom Luljak hosted UWM Today on WUWM for more than two decades and is the inaugural host of Curious Campus.
