War Memorial for Middle East Conflicts, War History Online, Post-deployment Car Accidents, VUB Free Pre-College Summer Modules



The Video of the Day is about an unsung hero: Illinois Valley Cellular, who has provided a space and a memorial for Middle East casualties.  This is a powerful video, not only about the memorial, but about the families and the motorcyclists that gather every year to pay their respects, please share it: http://youtu.be/WEPBQGu74oo or http://politicaldoo-doo.blogspot.com/2013/05/freedom-isnt-free-war-memorial.html


War History Online highlights the story of Charles Brown and Franz Stigler, pilots whose fate was woven together through an act of grace between ‘enemies.’  See more of their encounter in 1943, and later in life, when they became like brothers, before they both passed away: http://www.warhistoryonline.com/featured-article/amazing-interviewed-bf-109-pilot-franz-stigler-and-b-17-pilot-charlie-browns.html
