Comes A Soldier's Whisper

I am very excited to be a new member of MWSA and to share Comes A Soldier's Whisper, a collection of wartime letters with reflection and hope for the future.

Although these letters were written some seventy years ago between 1943-1945, they resonate the same sentiments of our soldiers today. A soldier's thoughts turn to family, the future and his past and is shown throughout my father's (David Clinton Tharp) personal letters sent home. War changes a soldier. It changes their family too...

My father would write, "My silk is my silent weapon, and the thread upon which my life hangs." And so the whisperings of feelings felt and perhaps not heard back then can have a voice and speak for those soldiers returning from war today. Although these letters are written from another era, they are timeless.  My father also fought in the battle campaigns of Carentan and The Battle of the Bulge.

Please feel free to visit www.comesasoldierswhisper.com and share a veteran story or listen to veteran interviews.
