Book excerpt: Lessons from the Past - Honor, Remembrance & Reconciliation... ... quite possibly the only lessons of importance derived from the torn and scarred but necessary Peace & Freedom confrontations of America in the Revolutionary War, Civil War, World Wars 1+2, Korean and Vietnam wars. This profoundly- unique book, Gardens of Peace, was created and designed by photographic-artist and publisher D. S-Strong, a vietnam-era U.S. Navy flying officer, who recffalls- with great assistance from Amrecian Battle Monument Comission (ABMC) - the bravery and patriotism of all U. S. military servicemen-women that fought and died for eternal Liberty and Justice throughout the world. Featuring magnificent photo + art imagesof all ABMC cemeteries and memorials (plus a few views of similar Allied and Axis burialgrounds), a dramatic story (historically true), veteran combay memories, and prayers for greater reconciliations of former enemies (i.e., Germany, Japan) now gracious with America, Lt. Strong's book has planted a few more seeds of truth, honor and happiness for all military and civilian generations today and tomorrow. Also planted are proud salutes to the American Battle Monuments Commission, a Federal Government Agency responsible for management and operation of 22 World War 1 and World War 2 U.S. military cemeteries.

Download or read book War and Remembrance written by Thomas H. Conner and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No soldier could ask for a sweeter resting place than on the field of glory where he fell. The land he died to save vies with the one which gave him birth in paying tribute to his memory, and the kindly hands which so often come to spread flowers upon his earthly coverlet express in their gentle task a personal affection." -- General John J. Pershing To remember and honor the memory of the American soldiers who fought and died in foreign wars during the past hundred years, the American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC) was established. Since the agency was founded in 1923, its sole purpose has been to commemorate the soldiers' service and the causes for which their lives were given. The twenty-five overseas cemeteries honoring 139,000 combat dead and the memorials honoring the 60,314 fallen soldiers with no known graves are among the most beautiful and meticulously maintained shrines in the world. In the first comprehensive study of the ABMC, Thomas H. Conner traces how the agency came to be created by Congress in the aftermath of World War I, how the cemeteries and monuments the agency built were designed and their locations chosen, and how the commemorative sites have become important "outposts of remembrance" on foreign soil. War and Remembrance powerfully demonstrates that these monuments -- living sites that embody the role Americans played in the defense of freedom far from their own shores -- assist in understanding the interconnections of memory and history and serve as an inspiration to later generations.
