FORT BRAGG, N.C. — The U.S. Army Special Operations Command will add the names of 29 soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan to its Memorial Wall.

The names will be added Wednesday during a ceremony at Fort Bragg. More than 150 family members of the fallen soldiers are expected to attend the ceremony, held by Lt. Gen. Robert W. Wagner, commanding general of USASOC.

The memorial wall has 813 names of soldiers killed since the Vietnam War.
