This website is designed for many purposes.  First and foremost, it is to pay tribute to the heroes who fell.  Second, it is to humanize war and chronicle the cost of war and, in doing so, to prevent future wars.  Heroes die for the sake of a cause, a country, but mostly they die to protect their comrades. This is a living monument to them.

Wars are not acts of God. They are caused by man, by man-made institutions, by the way in which man has organized his society. What man has made, man can change. - Frederick Moore Vinson

Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defenses of peace must be constructed. - Constitution of UNESCO
 

This page contains the names of Eritrean martyrs who died between 1998 and 2003, as a consequence of the 1998-2000 border war that broke out between Eritrea and Ethiopia. This page is designed as a tribute. If you think seeing the names would cause you stress and/or anxiety, please don't continue any further.
