Jon Sigurdsson Chapter IODE

In 1923 the women of Jon Sigurdsson Chapter collected the names and bios of over 1500 veterans of Icelandic descent in World War I from across North America and published a book entitled "Minningarrit Islenzkra Hermanna 1914-1918.
In 1980's the next generation of JS IODE were encouraged to do the same for those who served in World War II, publishing "Veterans of Icelandic Descent World War II" in 1990. The video by Susan Hjalmarson features a few of the soldiers pictures. Lest We Forget.
