We want to tell you about the latest happenings for the Korean War Educator.  Over the last several months Lynnita has researched and added dozens of military airplane crash fatalities on our Airplane Crashes pages.  We need our readers' help on this, so if you have a computer and some spare time, we encourage you to visit the Airplane Crashes index and click on "Incomplete Listings Challenge." Maybe you can find what we can't.  Meanwhile, history department volunteers are working in conjunction with Booth Library at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois, to continue the important work of documenting the memoirs of Korean War veterans collected over the years by Lynnita. In addition, the KWE's webmaster is working with AI to migrate the remainder of our existing Korean War memoirs from the old site to the new one.   Every single day our efforts to recognize and honor Korean War veterans continue on with determination.
