Veterans Corner Radio

 | Today we Vet-roduce a project in development called "Letters from the Front" in which lines from letters sent home by military members at war to their loved ones are transformed into lyrics set to contemporary classical compositions.  We meet "Letters from the Front" Executive Producer Ian Gindes who is also a Major in the Illinois Army National Guard and Composer Patrick Zimmerli.  Their team is comprised of musicians from around the globe and letters they derive lyrics from go back as early as the United States' Revolutionary War through to current United States' conflicts.  This project honors America's 250th birthday coming up in 2026 and years to come.

Corporal Demenza grew up in Tampa, Florida.  He enlisted in the US Army and went through training to be in the Infantry.  A unique pre-service course on drafting however, changed how he would serve.  As a result, he found himself in Japan as the war came to a close and became part of the effort to redistribute assets deployed on behalf of the US military to Japan.  Offered the opportunity to obtain a commission and turn in his Corporal stripes to become an officer, Harry chose a path he long desired from his days growing up.
