An amazing poem. Three years ago I was involved in a project for our county's historical society.
I interviewed 30 World War II veterans.It took me
6 months just doing it on tuesdays and thursdays.
Their stories were awesome and their memories were perfect about their experiences. Of the 30
2 were POWS amd 1 was at Pearl Harbor when the Japanese bombed it in December, 1941. Since that year 6 have died.
