In the Shadow of Alabama

by Judy Reene Singer

  I needed to write this story. I needed to honor my father and his men by remembering for them these many years later and telling others. There were so many service people like him from earlier wars, and so many who are still returning from present conflicts who are overlooked and need to be understood and helped and honored.

  May God bless and heal every one of us.
