Autorenporträt
William Andrew Leneweaver and Richard G. Patterson serve on the board of directors of the Washington National Guard State Historical Society (WNGSHS). Dr. William H. Woodward Jr., a founding member of the WNGSHS, is a long-serving professor of history at Seattle Pacific University and prominent regional historian. In addition, Andy, Rick, and Bill have collectively served over 90 years in the U.S. Army, including more than 75 in the Washington Army National Guard. As guardians of the Washington Guard's story, they expertly bring this history to life. Images from private, local, state, and national collections bring an intensely human look at the military service of Washington's men and women citizen soldiers.
