More reader feedback of "We Were There"

 just received this email from Tom Philo:

I Read "We Were There"! An excellent read ~ story(ies) that needed to be told.  We see books movies etc of World War II but rarely have the insight provided by the men and women themselves. These remarkable people left their lives in rural and big city America, fought in Europe and the Pacific defending freedom and whose heroic efforts preserved a free world. They then simply returned to their former lives blending into society and rarely, in most instances, never talking about their experiences. My own brother served in Europe and had a scar from the corner of his mouth to his cheek, yet all I ever knew was "just a piece of shrapnel". Never heard another utterance of his war experience and this was typical of the WW II soldier.  You have provided great insight into these exceptional men and women. Thanks!
Tom Philo

Thank you Tom for your appreciated review!
