"Tom Brokaw has delivered a gift to this and future generations by
bringing us these inspiring personal stories of the average Joes,
the GI Joes, the young men and women who served our country and
shaped the foundation of post-war America. Although some became
famous, most returned to their hometowns dedicated to building an
even better world. We meet them in this book, whose pages give
voice to the standards they set by their strength of character,
informed by their experience during World War II. Tom has held up a
mirror to reflect what may be their greatest legacy and pose in all
of us the question--Is this generation--our generation--worthy as
their beneficiaries?"
--Steven Spielberg
