From a message from the SFA Museum:
Quote:
through it's displays and historical accountings that tells each of our stories and will do so long after we are gone.
Hopefully it will continue to tell generations in the future about what we ,over the years, have accomplished in our individual and combined efforts to rid the word of oppression.
One only needs to read the TAPS notices to realize that many of our individual word of mouth history is being lost each year.
Our individual and combined efforts can only be told through the Museum ..documentation and displays.
As you see some of our history is dying off. Perhaps what I envision will be impossible. As someone said these soldiers are used to being "Quiet Professionals" as well as having lived a large part of their lives "Undercover", so to speak.

What I envision is a collection of 1st Person accounts or at the least accounts from relatives or eye witnesses. The world is full of stories, let's present facts -- many more amazing than the stories.

I respect the privacy of the SF List just as I will respect the privacy of PS.com. As a result I will not present -mail addressesor URLs without first getting permission. This weekend I will darft a letter to the SFA, the Bad Toelz Chapter of the SFA, and several others who may know these individuals
