The nonprofit initiative Stories Behind the Stars invites volunteers to add stories of all 421,000 US WWII fallen into one central database. These stories can be read at any gravesite or memorial using a free smartphone app. This project has attracted volunteers from all fifty states and more than a dozen other countries who have already written nearly 15,000 stories. To research and write the stories of all of the World War II fallen heroes, we are going to need hundreds if not thousands of additional volunteers.&nbsp; On average it takes about the same time to research and write a story of a real hero as watching a movie with a pretend hero. All training material and access to research sites are free. With enough participants, we can complete this project in just a few years. Let's get this done before the last of our World War II veterans pass on and join those who never came home.&nbsp; Tell a hero's story, volunteer today.&nbsp;
