I've been thinking alot the past couple months about the men and women of the US military and their families back home, wanting to do something to tangibly say thank you. I believe there is a great deal of positive work being done in Iraq and Afghanistan that we never hear about back home. I've been thinking about starting a website where American service personnel can tell their stories and record them for history. I thought about compiling stories from all the wars Americans have served in from the Revolution to Iraq. Soldiers from previous wars still living or their family members could tell their stories and wars with no living participants could be told through letters and documents that are found. What do you service folk think of the idea? I've already secured the website
http://www.soldierstories.net and would appreciate your input before I do anything else. I'm not looking for more work but if this would indeed be a worthwhile venture that our military folk would appreciate having an outlet to tell their stories of the challenges and difficulties of war, then I'd love to do it. Thanks.
