The afternoon of Thursday, September 20, 2012, will be memorable for the Ohio State community. Come to the Blackwell to recognize the sacrifice of those lost in the wars abroad and learn more about the new book Tom Brokaw is calling a "must read for all Americans." The event is co-sponsored by the Ohio State Navy ROTC program.

LCDR Joshua W. Welle, Class President USNA 2002 and co-editor/contributor to the new book, will provide perspectives on ten years at war. He is on a national book tour and will explain how the Navy and Marine Corps responded after 9/11 and explain leadership concepts of service transferable to both civilians and those in the military. The book was recently selected to be on the Chief of Naval Operations' reading list for 2013.

If you ever served in the military, you will want to attend this event; if you know someone who served in the military, you will want to attend this event; and if you don't know someone in the military and want to learn more, attend this event!
