Military Research

Picture
Picture
Military research should start first and foremost with our vets.
The men and women who sacrificed so much
to defend and uphold the freedoms that we all enjoy today
because of what they believed in.
Here we honor
but a few of the vets
whose stories have been
​recorded for posterity
from Saginaw county.
We urge all families to take
the time
​to record the stories of the veterans in your own families
and then make those stories known for others to read and share in,
lest we forget.
