Wow. This is fantastic. What a wonderful idea, you will touch so many lives with this. It gives us all a better sense of it all - Thank You. Several years ago, I was in Hawaii on vacation with my husband, and we decided to go to the Arizona memorial - we had been there once before, but were only able to do the harbor cruise - this time we were able to go on the Arizona. It was Dec 7th. We were lucky enough to be with several vets. It is one thing to do the regular sight seeing "stuff", but quite another to do it with those who went through it all. I have never been so moved in my life as I was that day. It became real, not just something to see. That's what you have done Ed, is make it real for others. In our research we are always finding those who fought in the Civil War, and if we're lucky we can find our direct link to the Revolution, our goal to get that DAR or SAR status. But do we really stop and think about how it was? Sometimes this is what we need - to stop and take in all that we have researched, really think about it, give it life, not just some names and dates. We have to remember too, that genealogy doesn't just mean what happened 200 years ago, but it is also what is happening today. Things we remember, things that we did - this is all important - our descendants will want to know. Rene' List Administrator
