Web sites of interest

The J. Michael Cleveley’sWeb Site covers the life and times of Larry A. Thorne (Lauri Törni). His book on Finnish-American has become a classic war history in Finland. An English version of the book (A Scent of Glory) was published in Greece in 2003. A new edition in English is now available in the United States under the title “Born a Soldier, the Life and Times of Larry Thorne”. A Swedish version (Lauri Törni Yrke: Soldat) was also a best seller.

The Green Beret Foundation (GBF) assists wounded Special Forces soldiers and their families. Visit the GBF Website and learn more about their role in the Special Forces Community.

Civilians have no concept of what the military does except what is told to them by the media and TV. This web site, The Military View gives you the real side of the story---as told by the military itself.

My old Team Sergeant from White Star, Master Sergeant Raymond F. Flaherty (Ret), has written two books about the early days of Vietnam. This isn't the standard war story you would expect coming out of Southeast Asia. The book store Terra Sancta Press has these books if you're interested.

The Kitchen Table Gang is a good site to check out. It has information on how you can, as a veteran, help other veterans. Click on the Kitchen Table Gang to find out how.

Tired of reading and hearing nothing but gloom and doom in the national media? Defend America tells the other side of the story. Find out what's really happening in the War on Terrorism.

This site is a tribute, not only to our military, but to those brave men and women who travel into space, fight the fires and guard our streets. Please visit these pages.

Visit the new Fox News site paying tribute to those hero's who made the Ultimate Sacrifice in Operation Iraq Freedom .

This is the new JFK SW/SF Museum Association Website. The site is still in the making and when completed it will have a number of pages, including the complete sales catalog and their newsletter, Museum Musings . There will also be a secure link for credit card orders.

These twenty photos deal with the 9/11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York City. The person taking the photos is classified as a "non-professional", but they are some of the best I've seen. When you look at picture number 20, go back to picture number one. Photos from 9/11

Take a moment and send your Condolences and remembrances to the families of Fallen Green Berets
