Blog #90; Memorial Day Weekend Give Away
Celebrating Memorial Day is a uniquely American way to honor our service men and women who have given so much for our country. I remember, during a time in my life when I was visiting the Orlando VA daily, that I often saw on T-shirts the slogan, "All gave some, some gave all," and this saying impressed upon me the sacrifices made, time and again, generation after generation, to keep this country free and to defend the Constitution. This is a time for cookouts, franks and beans, time with family and friends to remember those lost and those we still are lucky enough to have with us. It is in the spirit of this celebration that I offer two digital books for the weekend, In Love and War, which takes place during WW II, and is a love story between an American pilot and a German young woman. I am also giving away a novella, called "Under Old Glory", about two Mormon brothers from Utah who enlist during World War I. In both of these books I explore the very real costs of war, particularly in suffering from trauma and the persistent guilt that one can never reverse one's destructive actions in combat.
