americana traditional country veterans tribute
Artist picture
Americana music, vocal recitation of Veteran's Tribute material with musical background; traditional country;
A Tribute To Veterans evolved from my radio program, Country Stew. I did special Veterans Tribute Shows each year for Veterans Day and Memorial Day. The shows were heard by a record producer, Mr. Roger Glenn Miller, and he was inspired to put together a CD of traditional country music that paid tribute to our Military and Veterans and included these special readings from my program on the CD.

Story behind the song
My father in law, Norman, served in the South Pacific during WWII and this poem was written by a fellow soldier in his company. Norman carried a very worn copy, folded in his wallet, for 50 years, until he died in 1993.
