resulting “great depression,” along with the “dust bowl” were all factors that altered most people’s lives. Life and economic survival were a struggle for most, and an ed- ucation and career were out of reach.
They lived by a code of hard work, loyalty, dedica- tion, and your “word” and handshake were your bond. These characteristics helped to make them tough and de- termined to succeed.
They were named the Greatest Generation by Tom Brokaw in his book by the same name. He said they were the greatest because they “fought for what was right rather than for self gain.” They made great self sacrifices fighting to protect people in other countries from the likes of Hitler, Mus- solini, and to respond to the surprise attack by the Japa- nese on Pearl Harbor.
Among the attractions of the exhibit are a section devoted to the contributions of the Navajo “code talkers” who helped decipher commu- nications codes. Also, there is an exhibit featuring the World War II experience of Reedley’s Japanese-Amer- ican residents, including those who went on to serve in a special unit.
There also are exhib- ited spotlighting each of the branches of the U.S. mili- tary including and Army Air Corps.

the park who saw the attack, which occurred shortly before 7 p.m.
Deputies said that the vic- tim was at the park with his family. While taking a swim in the lake, the victim was ap- proached by a teen who asked him if he was part of a gang. The victim told him no. As he was getting out of the water, two other teens confronted him, and an ensuing argument turned into a fist fight.
During the fight, the vic- tim suffered a stab wound to his back from a knife. The group scattered and left the
