Normandy Landing Anniversary: Ode to the Greatest Generation
The Priceless Legacy Company honors the 65th anniversary of the Allied landings at Normandy on June 6, 1944.
Dallas, Texas (Vocus/PRWEB ) June 5, 2009 -- While people around the world acknowledge the 65th anniversary of the Allied landings at Normandy in June 1944, the Priceless Legacy Company is rededicating itself to the mission of helping people preserve these and other precious memories.
The Priceless Legacy Company is building a national network of Legacy Consultants who meet with clients to interview them, organize their photos and manage the process of creating beautiful Life Story book packages. The company has created Life Story books for a number of World War II veterans and feels an intense responsibility to finish as many as possible while there is still time.
While some veterans have taken time to record their life stories, a vast majority have not. It is the obligation of families and communities to urge these heroes to spend time - even if only a few minutes - recording their life and war time experiences.
For those not inclined to do their own writing or recording, they can use a professional service like Priceless Legacy or take advantage of excellent volunteer programs like the US Library of Congress' Veterans History Project.
"The debt we owe these heroes can never be repaid," said Priceless Legacy CEO and former US Marine officer, Peter Gudmundsson. "The most meaningful act we can take to honor these men and women is to take the steps to record and remember what they did for us and the cause of Freedom."
"Ours is a sacred obligation," adds Gudmundsson. "We believe that everyone's life story should be preserved and honored for the benefit of current future generations. It is a special privilege and honor for the company to serve veterans of all sorts, not just those who took part in Operation Overlord.
