Have you ever seen the memorial up close? I wasn't able to figure out how the names are arranged on it.

Yes, I know what you mean. Maybe Sam can help us about that. Sam, see post # 48.

They are in chronological order, according to the date of casualty within each day, the names are alphabetized. For the dead, the date of casualty is the date they were wounded (received in combat) or injured (received in an accident); for the missing, the date they were reported to be missing.
