Honoring those that served.....from years gone by

I have a huge archive of vintage publications from the 1800s through the 1970s.


One common theme through the 1950s was patriotism.  Today, I am highlighting and honoring some of these soldiers. 


Perhaps someone related to one of these soldiers will get to see pictures they didn't know existed.


Share & get the word out.  If this is a popular post, I'll add more in days to come.  I have many I can share.
