Claudia8's video: Live This Life Big Rich - Truman Thomas WWII Hero

@Live This Life (Big & Rich) - Truman Thomas WWII Hero

This tribute is to my Uncle, Truman E. Thomas, who was killed in action in WWII. In essence, it is a tribute to all those who have served our country throughout the generations. This video revolves around Truman's service in the Big Red One and excerpts from V-Mail letters to his sister Thelma Thomas Hicks. Truman was one of four brothers (my father being one of them), who served in the war. Music contained in this video: 1. Live This Life, by Big & Rich 2. I Believe, by Diamond Rio 3. Whiter Than Snow, by Josiah Thomas (father of Truman, and my grandfather, whose bluegrass down root Kentucky singing has been preserved and shared, thanks to my Uncle John Thomas). There are many others in my family who have served our country and I am proud of each and every one of them. As noted, the excerpts contained in this video were written by Truman to his sister, Thelma. Thanks to Thelma, who has since passed away, and her son, Gary Hicks, these letters are preserved for future generations. The word, "Jerry", used in the correspondence was a term used to refer to Nazi enemy soldiers.
