I subscribe to an interesting blog called Pacific Paratrooper . It is put together by a military lover called GP Cox. He has taught me many things about our military that served in the Pacific during various eras. I recommend signing up for it. At the end of his posts Mr. Cox lists vets who have...

After 3 weeks of searching for family to claim Mr. Beavers’ body for burial, no one came forward. The Allen County coroner finally gave up. Thankfully, a local funeral home offered to conduct a funeral for Mr. Beavers and invited the public to attend to show their respect for him and his service.

What have you done today to brighten someone’s day? I’ve decided the month of December (for once) will be filled with activities designed to bless others. A full-time job in past years kept me from helping/ volunteering/ spending time with people who needed some cheer. Through my World War II interviews, I’ve connected with many older...

It was great fun with lots of opportunities to tell people about the 100 World War II vets I’ve interviewed and... Continue Reading →
The official birthday for the US Air Force is 18 September 1947 as enacted under the National Security Act of 1947. I can’t let this occasion slip by without saying thank you to all of the fly-boys who have contributed to this newest branch of the American military. My husband and son have both been...

Last week was a busy, fruitful week for spreading the word about honoring our nation’s World War II vets! Not one, not two, but three speaking engagements! One was even on TV! That’s a trifecta for this small town girl who enrolled in Toastmasters to learn how to speak to a group! On Sunday August... Continue Reading →
I’m thrilled for this exciting day to finally be here! Two events are happening that will result in more people knowing about our World War II vets and ways they can honor them. First, I’ll be speaking about my interviews with WWII vets to a group called LIFT (Living Information for Today). It is sponsored... Continue Reading →
