At the Salt Lake City-County Building this weekend is the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) “Eyes Wide Open” boots exhibit. Each of the 700 pairs of combat boots represents about 40 U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq, 2726 so far. They are tagged with the name and state of one of them, with Utah in the foreground and the rest in order by states from the distance to foreground.
The exhibit was in Logan last week, and will be in SLC Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 8am to 5:30pm, at the City Hall, 4th South and State Street.
Marshall Thompson’s walk (A Soldier’s Peaced – see post below) will pass by there Saturday morning, starting at the Capitol shortly after 8 am.
