Military Times NOW hosts the HomeOfHeroes  Awards & Citations Database

 

Stories of American Heroes - Brought to you from the "Home of Heroes" - Pueblo, Colorado

FREE - DOWNLOADABLE BOOKS

In the RESEARCH LIBRARY the links below are to MicroSoft WORD documents containing citations and often photographs of individual recipients, that YOU can print as a full-color book. These books were originally put together in 2006 for individual sale/download, but will no longer be available in the general area of our site--these are ONLY available to those who have purchased a subscription to our RESEARCH LIBRARY.

Because these were generated in late 2006, we have obtained MUCH MORE information and many more citations over the last 18 months. Throughout the remainder of 2008 I will be up-dating these to a 2008 version. Meanwhile, feel free to help yourself to the previous versions, which I believe will be WELL WORTH your time and membership.
