McCoullough and C.F. Hammerstein covers 4,537 local veterans, so we are well represented.&amp;nbsp; The site also includes information from interviews from returning veterans: home front stories, camp life, hospital experiences, women in service, P.O.W. memories and explanations of the various brances of service.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Check out the names of veterans you&amp;#39;ve heard of and see how well they&amp;#39;re represented. &amp;nbsp;If you are aware of a veteran who is not listed or have additional information, you can contribute anything you know about him or her by emailing Jan Mattingly at&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="mailto:WWVets@Gmail.com"&gt;WWVets@Gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://evpl.org/community/aggbug.aspx?PostID=924" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://evpl.org/community/blogs/research/archive/tags/databases/default.aspx">databases</category><category domain="http://evpl.org/community/blogs/research/archive/tags/Vanderburgh+County/default.aspx">Vanderburgh County</category><category domain="http://evpl.org/community/blogs/research/archive/tags/Indiana/default.aspx">Indiana</category><category domain="http://evpl.org/community/blogs/research/archive/tags/veterans/default.aspx">veterans</category><category domain="http://evpl.org/community/blogs/research/archive/tags/World+War+I/default.aspx">World War I</category></item></channel></rss>
