Recreated from over 400 letters and postcards sent home during WWII, the story of two farmer brothers turned soldiers is an archetype for the thousands like them whose stories have not been told.

By sharing their story, families like ours will find a camaraderie in our shared story and grow to appreciate and remember their own loved ones with a richer and deeper compassion. For those further removed from the intimacies of a war-torn family, this book shares a glimpse into the human experience and sacrifice others have paid for our freedom.
