Silent Heroes of the Cold War

As we gather with friends this Memorial Day, it seems especially appropriate to share this beautiful  mini-documentary on the “silent heroes” of the Cold War recently posted on YouTube. Efforts are under way for a memorial  at Mount Charleston for us all to enjoy and pay homage to these silent heroes.
