Our History Project – Helen Denton – A Life of Service
I had the honor of interviewing Mrs. Helen Denton this week. Folks, this is truly a remarkable woman and you will undoubtedly find her life as interesting as I did. Just some highlights: She typed the D-day Order’s for June 6th, 1944 - She cut a rug with Lawrence Welk - She stopped a moving train –She meet the Queen and much, much more. In fact there is way too much to even to begin to list.
She is one of Georgia’s most interviewed people, but I think we got a story that was different and inspiring. I have included the excellent “GA PBS TV” interview that you can watch as well. I suggest that you take our interview with you on the road and watch the video at home. Both interviews will give you the complete picture of this legend of service. This is great story of service, community, sadness, hope and sharing.
Don’t Miss It!

About Us
Our History Project, Inc. is a National Non-Profit Organization based in McDonough, GA. Our Mission and Vision is the Preservation and Education of Our United States History.
We are updating
In March of this year we have moved servers and are in the process of moving all of our audio over to our own. It was due to excessive rising cost and the lowering of service that prompted this move. Please bear with us as we make this transition. If there is a show you are looking for and do not see here as of yet, feel free to contact us and we can get you a direct download link.
