Who Are We?

We are an Advanced Placement English III class from Bridge City High School. Under the direction of our instructor Mrs. Cathy Riley, we have been taught important life lessons such as reverence and appreciation. Without the help of the families, friends, and brothers-in-arms of our fallen heroes, this project would not have been possible. We are deeply gracious for your time, patience, and support. Thank you.

About Our Project

Our project started when we were assigned to read Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried. ​This novel captures a Vietnam veteran's time served in the war and inspired us to commemorate fallen soldiers across the nation. This project consisted of months of research and communication with the soldiers' loved ones. We created connections between ourselves and the legacies of our soldiers and have been permanently impacted by their stories.

Our Goal

Through our video assignments and extensive research papers, we hope to create lasting remembrances of our fallen heroes' sacrifices for our freedom and livelihood.
