I
would like to dedicate this page to those family members who have served
in the military forces and fought for our freedom. Most of us have an ancestor
who has served in war. Some have been lost, but most were able to come
home and reunite with their loved ones to live the life they fought so
bravely for. I'm not proud of all the things we fought for, but I know
they did what they thought best for their families and homes. If there
is and asterisk by their name, it is a link for additional information.
