My new research on which I am building a new Keynote speech is about Ulysses Tebbs. He was a WWI soldier from St. Louis. Unfortunately he was not with his comrades pictured here on their return trip to America from Europe.

Testimonials

Alan Kirby rendered the Union County (Illinois) Historical Society and the area great service in providing an enlightening lecture about a local WWII TAIL GUNNER and his crew. His research, gifted delivery, subject amplification by accompanying slide views, punctual habits, and sympathetic and intense interest in our fallen military, brought tears to the eyes, a few smiles to the faces, and warm appreciation to the hearts of his audience. We of the UCHS would recommend him highly and appreciate your e-mailing me at jdmdoc@verizon.net so that I can tell you more about our very positive experience with him.
