Military and Veterans History Group June, July, August 2018

Caught up for 2018

I have caught up with posts for each of the programs for the year- and am very much looking forward to C.D. Peterson's talk on the home front- specifically his home front farm on June 27th, 2018.  The paper copies of the newsletter went out today - and I hope to get the online copy out today or tomorrow! Here are some various pictures from the group:

Shot From The Sky-American POWs in Switzerland-February 28th at 2 p.m.

 We had a good fundraiser selling copies of Cathryn's book. An evaluation was taken of the program and the group found it informative concerning this little known chapter in WWII history.
