“Are you a World War 2 Veteran or know someone who is?”
In 1998, I began my project of collecting stories from World War 2 veterans and their families for the purposes of preserving and documenting information for future generations to learn. One day, all this information will be donated to the General Patton Memorial Museum.

If you are interested in sharing your story, please contact me.
