A proposito di questo titolo

Rebekah and Richard host Sandy Thompson, Director of the Alabama Veterans Museum and Archives in Athens, Alabama. They discuss historic events of World War I and II and Limestone County's service both in action and on the home front. Entire families enlisted and many of their stories are told here. Richard remembers his father on the USS Alabama along with several uncles in active duty. Rebekah remembers her Great Aunt Jerene, the first Rosie the Riveter from Athens. The Veterans Museum has exhibits honoring many of these local heroes, including an exhibit on the German invasion of Westerplatte marking the start of WW II in Europe.
