Memorial Day, June 30, 2011

On this Memorial Day I would like to honor family members who have fought for our country.
WWI
General John J. Pershing (General of the Armies)
Arthur A. Clifford (Tank Division)
Edgar O. Wold (Ambulance Division)
WWII
Donald W. Hinsverk (Army)
Norman K. Wold (Navy)
Korean Conflict
Jack W. Clifford (Navy)

They bravely served their country to preserve freedom and democracy.  A museum is being built for General Pershing at his boyhood home in Missouri to honor him.  The video give a good overview of his life.


A good book on the Generals life "Until the Last Trumpet Sounds: The Life of the General of the Armies John J. Pershing."
