Centerville-Washington History presents: “What's the Story: Soldiers' War Memories”  by Ken Serey on Tuesday, November 19 at 7 p.m. at the theater inside RecPlex West, 965 Miamisburg-Centerville Rd in Centerville.

‘WHAT’S THE STORY?’ is a collection of first-hand stories from Ohio veterans who answered the call when our country needed them in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. True stories from the Veterans who were there:

• The first man to land on Omaha Beach.
• A detailed account of the Battle of the Bulge from a member of the 101st. Airborne “Band of the Brothers.”
• A pilot’s description of the firebombing of Japan.
• The treasures found at Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest hideaway.
• A Merchant Marine’s story of surviving a torpedo attack.
• The soldier who took on a Panzer tank-without ammunition - and won.
• German POW camps in Ohio.

Ken Serey is an author and proud husband of almost fifty years with two grown children and five grandchildren. He lives in Tipp City, Ohio. Ken and his brother had an independent business to help thousands of blind and visually impaired men and women by giving them the capability to see, read, and resume normal life. As he worked with veterans, he invited them to share their personal, moving, dramatic stories.
