Photographer and award-winning author Richard Sherman will give a presentation on his book, “Never Home: Remembering the Military Heroes Who Never Returned,” that illustrates the men and women military members who served and died overseas in World War I and II. Also, Sisters in Arms of Cape Coral President Lisa Arnold will discuss her organization’s efforts to raise $400,000 for a bronze monument to be erected in the Cape in honor of women’s military service. An Estero resident, Sherman is a former Navy officer and Gulf War veteran. His memorial book honors those who are interred in America’s 23 overseas military cemeteries. With over 225 images and more than 50 biographies captured over the course of eight trips spanning six years, Sherman recalls the supreme sacrifice of the country’s fallen heroes. Arnold is a retired Air Force command chief master sergeant who served 28 years. Named “Her Sacrifice, Her Legacy,” the monument is intended to recognize women’s service across all six military branches, from the Revolutionary War through today. The proposed location for it is the veterans memorial area at the Four Mile Cove Ecological Preserve. The meeting is open to Cape Coral MOAA members, as well as former and retired U.S. military officers and senior noncommissioned officers. The breakfast cost is $12. Reservations are requested.
