Thoughts on WWII

I will post links to some good websites that I find through my surfing of the net. The one that I post today was actually sent to me by a friend from AWON, American WW II Orphans Network. The website is called Fallen But Not Forgotten. This website is dedicated to paying tribute to the 8301 American heroes buried at the Netherland American Cemetery in Margraten, Netherlands. The authors of this site want publish the story of every soldier buried there and make sure it is not forgotten. I browsed through the pages today and I am very impressed by the amount of detail and respect the site pays our fallen service members of WWII.

I emailed the site authors using their contact form and will hopefully soon have my grandfathers information on their pages. My grandfather, Pfc Joseph Lucas, is buried at Margraten, plot O row 6 grave 12. He was killed May 26, 1945 near Hanau, Germany. He served in Battery B, 882 Field Artillery Battalion, 70th Infantry Division. He is one of the reasons I have such an interest in WWII.
