A blue star for each family member serving in America's military... a gold star if that life was lost in defense of the nation's freedom. IN WORLD WAR I, the American tradition of the service flag began. Families displayed a simple fabric banner with a blue star for each family member serving in the U.S. Armed Forces. If a family member died in the nation's service, a gold star covered that individual's blue star on the family service flag. Not a symbol of mourning, the gold star represented the family's pride and the honor and glory accorded to that individual for making the supreme sacrifice in defense of the America's freedom. Soon, the term "gold star mother" came to be used to identify and honor women who had lost a son or daughter in wartime military service. Following the war, as the nation focused its attention on those veterans who had returned whole in mind and body, gold star mothers served as a constant reminder of the true cost of war. In 1928, a group of these women formed American Gold Star Mothers, Inc., an organization created to honor those who had died by being of service to veterans and their families in need, supporting gold star families, and caring for veterans who had returned with physical, emotional and psychological wounds. From that humble beginning, American Gold Star Mothers, Inc. has become an icon of national service, opening its membership time and again to gold star mothers of later wars and conflicts, including Iraq and Afghanistan. Their amazing legacy of service is an important yet largely unknown chapter in American history. This book presents the story of gold star mothers in America and the first comprehensive history of American Gold Star Mothers, Inc., drawn from nearly a century of archival materials. The fascinating story of the strong women who honored their fallen sons and daughters by dedicating themselves to the service of veterans and peace is both compelling and inspiring.

Michigan Military - Michigan Pride is filled with short veteran's stories about their unique military experience. The book also includes interesting tidbits of history and show many of the wartime posters and pictures of WW II. Why do we sell Poppies on Veteran's Day? What was meant by the "Magic Carpet" brigade? What did "Hollywood Stars" think of the war? Why did a Polish woman bury glass jars at the base of a tree? Why do the "guards" at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier have "wet" gloves? Who were "Ripley's Raiders?" Why were sailing ships used during WW II? What is an "ash can?" What president of a major food company paid for a full eight course dinner for four sailors on leave? These and many other questions are answered in the book! Read about the "airman" who became a "guest" at Stalag I 7B and how he coped with the situation. Read about the eye-opening experience a medical corpsman experienced when he crossed the equator! Read about "Operation Detachment" and the terrifying experience of the taking of Iwo Jima, culminating in the famous "raising of the flag" picture on the cover of this book. Read some of the poignant VVW Il poetry penned by a lonely G.l. Read about the Vietnam Memorial wall and a veteran's visit that brought healing to him and his fellow veterans. Michigan Military - Michigan Pride is designed to honor veterans and active service people throughout America. Admiral Chester Nimitz, CINCPAC, WVV Il stated: "Among the Americans who fought on Iwo Jima, uncommon valor was a common virtue." That sentiment can be ascribed to all who have fought to retain America's freedom and independence. It is important we remember that "Freedom - is not free!" It is also important to remember - "Our Military - Keeps America Freel"

This book discusses WWI-era music in a historical context, explaining music's importance at home and abroad during WWI as well as examining what music was being sung, played, and danced to during the years prior to America's involvement in the Great War. Why was music so important to soldiers abroad during World War I? What role did music—ranging from classical to theater music, rags, and early jazz—play on the American homefront? Music of the First World War explores the tremendous importance of music during the years of the Great War—when communication technologies were extremely limited and music often took the place of connecting directly with loved ones or reminiscing via recorded images. The book's chapters cover music's contribution to the war effort; the variety of war-related songs, popular hits, and top recording artists of the war years; the music of Broadway shows and other theater productions; and important composers and lyricists. The author also explores the development of the fledgling recording industry at this time.

Spiritual lessons from insect archetypes of the Medicine Wheel • Reveals the sacred wisdom inherent in Honeybee’s pollinating, Butterfly’s transformation, Spider’s weaving, and Earthworm’s recycling • Provides experiential practices, such as Shamanic Breathwork journeys, to connect with insect teachers and harness their consciousness-activating patterns • Shows how Dragonfly, Cicada, and Cricket connect us with the Great Star Nations, the depths of Mother Earth, and the music of life • Includes access to Cricket Chorus Meditation audio tracks Our insect brothers and sisters are some of the most ancient beings and teachers on planet Earth. Their powerful skills of adaptation and their plight, such as the widespread colony collapse facing honeybees, have brought them to the forefront of collective consciousness, as every being on Earth faces a time of incredible transformation. The archetypal energies of these sacred Wisdomkeepers can guide us through this evolutionary time with new pathways of shamanic healing and transformation to realize the highest potential of humanity. Exploring the insect and arachnid archetypes of the Sacred Instar Medicine Wheel, authors Linda Star Wolf and Anna Cariad-Barrett reveal the consciousness-activating patterns in the pollen flight of Honeybee, the transformative chrysalis of Butterfly, the creative weavings of Spider, and the alchemical recycling of old into new of Earthworm. They show how Dragonfly, Cicada, and Cricket connect us with the Great Star Nations, the depths of Mother Earth, and the music of life, as demonstrated on the accompanying audio tracks. Each chapter includes experiential practices, such as Shamanic Breathwork journeys, to help you embody the strengths of these humble teachers, live within the natural cycles of planet Earth, and discover a higher octave of sacred purpose.

This book reflects the following: • Prior to WWII, we were privileged to witness the last days of the horse-drawn ice wagons, the ragman, and even the musical Umbrella Fix-It Man. • All children in homes, churches, and schools were taught that their behavior was accountable to God, and it worked! • Domestic violence and abuse of women were tolerated, and the woman was always to blame. • Immigrants achieved progress and wealth by the sweat of their brow. • Family destruction by means of divorce was acceptable, and still is, as long as lawyers and judges made money! My prayer is that everyone who reads this book will realize the pain and suffering a corrupt legal system inflicts on families and that this book fall into the hands of a qualified person who can and will do something about it because divorces do not belong in the court system as a lawsuit.
