Veterans History Project

For SCA Veterans and Family Members:

Congressman Jon Porter has asked me to assist him with helping to promote the National Veterans History Project within Sun City Anthem. I have also volunteered to assist the SCA Veterans Special Interest Group, the SCA Republican Special Interest Group, and independent SCA residents in this regard.

Accordingly, here are links to the national program and Congressman Porter’s initiative for the Nevada 3rd District.

Having worked with this national program since its beginning a few years ago, I may be able to assist a veteran or family member who may be thinking about participating in some way. Everyone who has served in the U.S. Military, past and present, can be remembered in meaningful ways.

This is a “history project” so those of you who lost family members in past conflicts can submit items to remember their past services. Individuals do not have to have been recognized in special ways. Millions of individuals have contributed to winning and preserving our freedoms.

Every service member is worthy of being remembered for their honorable contributions–regardless of their length of service or whether they excelled in combat or not. It was the millions of individuals who made up the whole team who have won and preserved our liberty. That includes individuals who served at any time in the 20th Century as well as since then.

Congressman Porter’s project is focused on making audio interviews by veterans or family members within his office. But, there are other ways to recognize individuals. I will be leading the effort to encourage other Nevada Members of Congress to establish parallel initiatives. It is also possible that a SCA project may be sponsored by the Veterans SIG. It is just a matter of finding some individuals who would like to help sponsor such work.

Please send me an email to bobfrank@cox.net if you have questions or comments or would like to be involved in some way.

Robert E. Frank, Colonel, USAF (Ret.)
