We Celebrate Our Veterans in November

This week, you’ll hear from author and historian Mr. Wilbur Jones, retired Navy Captain, and past chairman of USS North Carolina Battleship Commission, and the current chairman of WWII Wilmington Homefront Heritage Commission. Mr. Jones is telling the story and maintaining the history of the work that Veterans are doing all over the country.
