Where were you on December 7, 1941?

     That was the question asked of four women who came together to talk about what life was like for them on the home front during World War II.
     Ginger Horkan, Elois Matthews, Ann Sherman, and Myrtle Lofton met together at the Moultrie Library one Thursday to participate in the library's video archive project.  They sat comfortably around a coffee table and talked about where they were when World War II broke out and how life changed for them.
     Few people are left to talk about that part of their lives and because of that Beau Sherman, our CNS Distance Learning Coordinator, helped pull together this video project.  Beau also helped with the ongoing video archive of interviews with veterans over the past couple of years.  These interviews are aired on CNS cablevision around the time of Veterans' Day in November and are also available to view at the Odom Genealogical Library as part of its Veterans History Project.
     On Sunday, June 12th, 2 to 4 p.m., the Moultrie-Colquitt County Library will host the "Home Front: Behind the Scene" event in the Willcoxon Auditorium.  The public is invited to join in honoring those who worked behind the scene during the wars and military conflicts in which America has served and those who continue to support our military personnel.  You can view the featured video and meet the women who participated.  And enjoy some light refreshments.
     This event will take place only two days before Flag Day on June 14th.  Come join us for this very special time.
