I don't suppose there's anything like List of placenames named for members of the US military or some such? I know in Canada there's an organization, who I heard from during my time at bivouac.com, who keep track of all the placenames conferred in memory of war dead servicemen; almost seems like a worthy cat/list to consider on either side of the border. In this case, some members of the Boundary Commission died during the survey (in such tough country, no wonder...and this was long before Vibram, Goretext and Thinsulate....). Just a thought, nothing I have the time to build/start myself but the USN connection here got me thinking....Skookum1 (talk) 19:11, 13 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
