FYI, the sequence of names on the Menin Gate were what inspired Maya Lin to do the sequence of names on the Viet Nam Memorial in Washington, D.C. She was a student of Vincent Scully and the gate forms part of his teaching on art and architecture.
The gate was designed by British architect Edwin Lutyens, now best known for his design of the government complexes of New Delhi.
