(AP) - A photo exhibit honoring Missouri service members killed in Afghanistan and Iraq is on display this week at Kansas City International Airport's Terminal C.

The exhibit, called "Remembering Our Fallen," has been traveling throughout the state since it was unveiled to the families of the deceased soldiers in July.

It will be on display at Terminal C Monday through Friday.

The American Legion of Missouri and the VFW of Missouri have endorsed the project because of the importance of remembering those who have lost their lives in the war on terror.

The exhibit is sponsored by Bellevue University in Nebraska.

Retired Air Force Col. James Biernesser, the school's director of military programs, says the exhibit was created in a way that it can travel easily throughout Missouri.
