Project staff photographers from "Over There: Missouri and the Great War," a state-wide World War I digitization project, visited Soldiers' Memorial this week to photograph WW I artifacts.
In this picture, one of the project staff photographers is digital-imaging the Purple Heart awarded to John R. Slay, great uncle of City of St. Louis Mayor Francis G. Slay, who was wounded in France in November 1918. Look for the Purple Heart and other interesting WW I artifacts at the Museum and online this spring at http://www.missourioverthere.org.
