This play is the result of intense, enlightening and deeply moving interviews conducted by middle-school students with patients in a V.A. hospital, other veterans, family members and community residents. The source material includes written and taped interviews, collections of letters and exchanges with past and present soldiers and accounts of each interviewer's own feelings about these interviews. Following performances, veterans and their family members have been inspired to step forward and continue the conversation. It is hoped that other communities will use this play as a catalyst to further story-sharing—and to remember.
