Stories from WW2

I integrated my art (above) in honor of people who served, whether they were in the service or civilians. I don't think we should forget our history or any war. And I wanted to pay tribute In a special way because I'm able to and because I believe they deserve a special rememberance.

I've realized something being in this thread, doing art and remembering.

All my life I never participated in any civic duties, voting, jury duty (i got out of it 3 times), campaigning— nothing—and now, it's occured to me that those privileges were given to me as a citizen of the US. And....it's made me aware that I have those privileges because of costly sacrifices.

Amazing how maturity, recognition of others, and taking responsibility change a person.
