List of Page Dedications
Most of the pages of The Carrier Project will, eventually, include a dedication - a remembrance of an individual or a group. Dedications may or may not be directly related to the subject of the page. The small half-staff flag -
- indicates a dedication "in memory of".
This page is a consolidated list of all such dedications. Pages that do not yet have dedications assigned are omitted. Some of the pages listed may not yet have content. The page title will link to the page; the actual dedication may include links to additional information about the subject. If a page is a sub-page of a larger subject, the higher-level page will also be listed, even if it does not yet have a dedication.
