Mentioned in Dispatches

Mentioned in Dispatches is a term from long ago when news from a battlefront was brief and rare. So the honour of being included was deemed very valuable and way to show respect for the acts of courage that our soldiers carried out.
In this day and age of instant and sometimes almost overwhelming amounts of information, the concept is almost lost. Yet it is important to stop and consider what tremendous actions have taken place to create these brief lines. Each is a marco view of an issue that is to large for most of us to digest. Take a moment to read each paragraph and ponder upon what happened that day and that moment and share with these brave soldiers their finest moments.
