Welcome to PROJECT ROLL CALL:
The first objective of “Project Roll Call,” is to establish a digital wall named “Roll Call” that honors our nation’s veterans and fallen service members. This platform will serve as a repository for veterans of all branches and eras to tell their stories, have their stories told, and be recognized for their service and sacrifice to our country. Additionally, “Roll Call” will be a platform where we acknowledge our fallen service members and their families, letting them and the world know that these patriots are not forgotten, and that We will Never Forget.
If you would like to have us Honor your Service Member
with a post to THE DIGITAL ROLL CALL WALL.

Our veterans are the blood and sweat of America’s freedom. Our country was forged on their sacrifice and call to duty.

The term Gold Star Family is a relatively modern reference that originated from the inception of the Service Flag. These flags/banners were first flown by families during World War I and included a blue star for each immediate family member serving in the Armed Forces of the United States during any period of war or hostilities in which we were engaged. If that loved one died while serving on active duty, the blue star was replaced by a gold star. This allowed members of the community to know the price that the family had paid in the cause of freedom...
