Stories behind the Stars

Parker, CO

Don Milne has begun a huge project - writing stories for each of the 400,000+ World War II veterans who gave the ultimate sacrifice for the country, and are recognized by the Gold Star. His goal is to have an app that anyone could use at a Gold Star gravesite, and see the story of this veteran. He needs volunteers for this task.

I saw his story on Facebook, went to his website to see what it was all about, and decided I wanted to join his cause to honor our World War II fallen. I have probably completed 30-40 stories and plan to continue, as time permits.

You can see what Don is doing at: www.storiesbehindthestars.org. If you are moved by what Don is doing, volunteer! It's easy and one way we can honor our World War II brothers and sisters who gave it all.
