Guardian Angels are those special individuals and organizations who have provided some form of in-kind or non-monetary contribution, such as services, labor or counsel without receiving any financial compensation. These are friends, family and people who believe in and support the important work that we are doing. We cannot over-emphasize how equally valuable these contributions are to our project.

Our sincerest gratitude to all those veterans and individuals who have sent research material, photographs or allowed us to film their interviews.
