This course is for anyone who has served in the U.S. military. Stories and insights will fade away unless they are shared. This course will demonstrate one way to keep your story ALIVE! The instructor served in the USMC from 1999-2003. Throughout the years, he has seen firsthand how powerful writing down military stories can be. The process is like rolling back the clock for a moment, where a team and the challenges that were overcome while serving the greatest country on Earth. You will use a mobile phone-friendly tool developed by the instructor – https://www.wordsofveterans.com/ – that helps you, the U.S. Veteran, write down your story quickly and accurately. These experiences are deeply meaningful. This class uses resources from the Veterans History Project at the Library of Congress and has been selected by the Lakewood Continuing Care Retirement Community to be streamed in their Community Room.
