Vietnam veteran Paul Dargan and artist Steve Alpert worked together to create a painting to honor the lives lost in the war.

"Mr. Dargan explained that it was during a Veterans Day ceremony in Bridgehampton in 2011 when he first saw Mr. Alpert’s work and decided to approach the artist with the idea of making a painting from his old photograph. Mr. Alpert accepted the challenge."

The painting can now be seen at the National Museum of the Marine Corps at Quantico.
