Online Resources

Many resources are available to assist those that are interested in doing research.  The Intenet sites listed below are those that I found to be the most helpful in putting the peices together regardng my father's life and experiences during his service in the Civilian Conservation Corps and in the US Navy during WW II.  In addition, I received valuable information from the published works of others and have listed them as print resources.
