Every signature in The Log Book is a direct link to a person with a story and witness account from this horrific conflict. One key ambition with this website is to present each signatory with a portrait outlining their story.
With each portrait post we add a “tag” that will file and sort under respective header. The below summary only outline less than half of the current 128+ signatures and truly provide a hint of the broad scale of this project.
