Barry Veden's book 'We Were There' is now available for purchase at the giftshop!
Barry J. Veden spent three years serving in the United States Army, and later spent the majority of his career working for NIPSCO. Over the course of his life, he has cultivated a strong passion for veteran advocacy, serving in a local chapter of the Veterans of the Battle of the Bulge where he interviewed 30 World War II veterans. In 2004, this work culminated in his book, My Heroes, which chronicled his interviews with World War II veterans.

His new book 'We Were There' tells the stories of veterans who fought during the Vietnam War. The book focuses on what veterans experienced during the war as well as what they experienced when they returned home. This is a wonderful book for all to read.
