1. J O H N KUHN’S
H Honoring the Veterans who H
Fought for Our Freedom
Our nation’s Armed Forces honor our
freedom by fighting for it. Now, with the
help of Green Bay fan favorite John Kuhn,
we are honoring their sacrifice by learning
what it was like for them as they served
thousands of miles from home in letters
they wrote to their loved ones.
Each week, beginning July 4 through Veteran’s Day,
we will publish an actual letter that was sent home by
a Veteran of World War II, Korea, Vietnam or the
Middle East during wartime. These letters show the
struggle of everyday Americans who were called to
nobly defend their country. And they show the
hardships they faced not knowing how their role in
history might end.
On Veteran’s Day, a special section of this newspaper will
feature even more stories and memories-and you’ll learn what
it means to truly Honor Our Freedom. Included will be the 98
men and women who served in Korea and Vietnam and took
part in the May 16 Honor Flight to Washington, D.C.,
accompanied by John Kuhn, who talked with the veterans as
they paid tribute at the war memorials in our nation’s capital.
Special thanks to the many families who sent the
correspondence in to the USA Today Network - Wisconsin
wishing to share these precious family keepsakes in tribute
to our nation’s Veterans. Join us in reading their stories,
and in celebrating their heroism, all in
a show of thanks for the
independence they provide.
