DAN WITZ | Killroy Variations | "During World War II, the saying "Kilroy Was Here!" began to appear as graffiti at home and wherever the American military traveled abroad. Eventually the saying, and the cartoon character that often accompanied it, came to represent America's worldwide presence."

Artist Nancy Hiss has been writing the names of occupation troops who have died in Iraq on the streets of Portland. From her site: "The names will thread their way through the fabric of Portland OR. Only last names will be listed to honor the sacrifice of individuals & their families. As you reflect on these names also remember the hundreds of thousands of nameless Iraqis and others who have been scared by this war."
