spirit that allowed them to
survive and, later, to thrive
as individuals and as a
community.
   During the First and

forth to defend the ideals of

democracy and freedom, while

involvement in the First and
Second World Wars through
photographs, objects, and the
stories of those individuals
whose strength of spirit led
them to give so much of
themselves.
