Lets Start Writing Our Stories!<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

World War Two was a climatic period for our families, who are members of the ‘greatest generation’ link <\/em><\/sup><\/a> . Our Operation WWII Chinese American GI webinar aired on 8\/29th link <\/em><\/sup><\/a> focuses on those who have served in our armed forces. But genealogy is about family history, and everyone in our family has an important contribution to our passion as BACGG members.<\/p>\n\n\n

Because of the 75th Anniversary celebration of the end of World War 2 on 9\/2\/2020, I have set up a page click <\/em><\/sup><\/a> for BACGG members to write something about our relatives who lived during that period. Contrary to the 8\/29th webinar, I have expanded the remembrances, including not only those who have served in the armed forces, but also on the home front, in the industrial war effort, and those interred by the tragic decisions of our leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your remembrances can be elaborate like Ron’s site click <\/em><\/sup><\/a> on a 3rd party website, or they can be a simple paragraph(s) like Doug’s site click <\/em><\/sup><\/a> . For Leona and Susan, they formatted their stories as a PDF, exported to an image, and we imported Leona’s page click<\/em><\/sup><\/a> and Susan’s page click<\/em><\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Members of BACGG, lets return to our roots. This is an opportunity to practice writing our family history and share your family’s stories to publish on our site. These remembrances will be permanent pages on BACGG website. Members will be able to access their page at any time to change or update. Membership has it privileges. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next year Ron will pay tribute to our veterans in the Korean Conflict, and the year after to veterans of the Vietnam war. As you gather your family history, remember to collect information on relatives in those two conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
