Description

The Book of Honor

Originating in 1974 and designed by Harold Vogel, the glass-encased Book of Honor containing 48 names of the 83 honored on the Memorial wall sits on a marble shelf below the Wall. Each name is inscribed using calligraphy on handmade paper with a gold star before each name. Names not revealed are signified by just the gold star. After inscribing, the paper is placed in a black leather book which is hand bound in Moroccan goat skin with a gold embossed CIA seal on its cover.
