We owe a debt of gratitude to our parents and the millions of other men and women who served in World War Two: members of what has been called "The Greatest Generation." Noted International Author and Personal Historian Kathleen Shelby Boyett honors six veterans of the war in this book by sharing their stories of life and of war, and of their dreams after the war was over. Come lay communication lines across the Himalayas with Private John Ballard, parachute into Europe with Major Fordyce Gorham, tend the wounded soldier with Captain Nell Mertins, fly through the flak-filled skies of the Pacific with Lt. Leo Horvath, set up weather stations in Brazil with Lieutenant Don Pemberton, and battle through Italy with Warrant Officer Elmo Brock. Come and honor these special veterans.
