Description
My purpose in collecting the stories for HEROES was initially to preserve the important legacies of our nation through the first-person accounts of those who have participated in wars spanning the past 70 years and in the process increase patriotism. I have found that veterans are those who have the greatest love for our country, because they have sacrificed the most for it. While not everyone will have the opportunity or challenge they have had to serve, we can all develop a greater appreciation for our great nation vicariously through their storytelling.
