Irene J. Dumas Salute to Our Veterans

Annotation

A Salute To Our Veterans is about war stories never told before, compiled and documented from 35 United States Military Veterans that served in the military during World War One, World War Two, the Koren War, the Vietnam War, and the Gulf War. They also served during the Cuban Crises, Grenada Crises, Desert Storm and Desert Shield, in Lebanon, Afghanistan and the Iraq War, etc. All the veterans in the book have been interview by me, except the last five in the book that are deceased. The last five veterans in the book are family members of our friends or relatives that asked me to include them in the book, they gave me the information about them. I tried to stick to the veterans stories, but after interviewing them, and researching where they had served and visualizing them there, I felt it would be interesting to the reader to also tell about some of the battles that they serve during. I also included some veterans that didn't have to go to the battlefront, their assignments were at home in support of the fighting troops. The stories in this book mark the period from 1918, WW I and continue through to 2007. This book has thirty-four veterans in it, and tells about what they did in the military for our country.
