I was able to leverage the alternating 4/1 clues in C1-6 and the 1/5/1 in C48-50 to eliminate a bunch of possibilities in those columns. (Everything in R1-32 can be eliminated for C1, 3, 5, and 49, plus a few more.) I think I eventually had to do some similar work with the 5 clue in R45. Once you've eliminated the possibilities that cause contradiction in the 1-clue columns, the rest solves with line logic.

Nice Image! Excellent solve! AWESOME Project! Thanks Bryan!
What a great example of how you can honor loved ones even thru a puzzle!

Fantastic. Thank you.

Great project - tough solve. A little hard to see the main image.

simply excellant. Solved by line logic.

AWESOME! Thanks to all who served and their loved ones who also sacrifice...

I did use moderate lookahead (edge and internal-edge logic) but I'm not certain it was necessary. There was definitely no guessing required.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by wombatilim.
