These are the Veterans story, told in their words, I have not checked all facts. Some stories were put together with post, chronicle and records from family members. Stories are always being updated when more information is available. There are many pictures shared also.
This is the last year for these stories. There are 4 left and I sell them only for $60.00 each.
Thank You to all these men and women who took the time to share their stories with me,
Ginny McGowan,
VFW Post 446 Historian.
