Within the pages of this book you will see how cement structures, intended for barriers, are transformed into pictorial walls that identify military units and honour service members who gave their lives for freedom in the Gulf War. They provide an esprit de corps for their unit members who are forward deployed from their home base, post, or camp. The unit colours and insignias displayed on these walls become the thoughts and memories of the men and women who have fought, and for those who have died for freedom. Memorial walls proclaim in silence the ultimate sacrifice of service. This artwork represents Coalition Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, Coast Guard, and D.O.D. Civilians who answered the call of freedom and deployed far from home and family. When these walls decay and are turned to rubble, this book will become a lasting legacy to those who have served in Kuwait and Iraq. AUTHOR: George Hauer is the Co-Founder of Operation: Music Aid, the supplier of over 2,400 new instruments to wounded soldiers and vets.
