During this extraordinary time, we want to share inspirational stories about our nations’ Veterans – the men and women who met extraordinary circumstances in their service to our country – and inspired others through their bravery and commitment to something greater than themselves. We would like to hear from you about these Heroes who have made a difference during their service as well as when they returned to civilian life. We are collecting short stories – no more than 500 words – to share on our website and through social media. We will be submitting them to the National Veterans Memorial and Museum as well as publishing them on our social media websites. Thank you for your consideration. Your story or the stories of your loved ones, friends or neighbors can be a beacon of light for others.
