I'm putting together a slide show of U.S. casualties in Iraq for a presentation I need to do. What I need are pictures of soldiers who died in Iraq. I have found a couple places, Washington Post and NYT are a couple but all they have are little thumbnails which blur out when blown up. Does anyone know of a place that has other, larger pictures? I will use the thumbnails if I have to but I really want the audience to clearly see the faces of the kids that we threw under the bus. I need them to feel it. Please, this is important, if you have a link to a site please help me out. Also this is not a debate thread so please don't give me any shit, this project is draining enough already...

3. If you are going for effect, show a flag draped coffin and just read the names. |
|
Or you could use GIMP to blow the pictures up.

4. Thanks... I'm using Photoshop to blow up the pics |
|
but they get blurry at sizes I can use. I can't read the names, this is going to be live at a concert, I think the band might get pissed if I started reading the names during their song. I'll probably go with the flag draped coffin, some shots of Arlington and stuff like that, thanks for the idea, appreciate the help.
