Lasting from July 28, 1914, to November 11, 1918, World War I is perhaps the most notable war in the history of mankind and while this war is so famously known for its great conflict, history buffs credit it for being the beginning of military and civilian technology. Within the very heart of the war, soldiers were expected to fight in harsh, trench conditions, brave wreckage and carnage and do so unwaveringly.
Military service is one of the most demanding careers. It can present further challenges when it comes to returning to civilian life. According to a survey conducted by the Pew Research Center, up to 27 percent of veterans experience considerable difficulties when returning to the workforce.
During the Civil War, more Americans died than in any other war the U.S. has ever been involved in. Funding the war also took a toll on the economy with the national debt rising 40 times over the pre-war levels.
Every year, Americans take time to remember and honor the fallen heroes of the civil war, a war that transformed America into what it is today. While most people in the country can make a list of civil war heroes, few of them actually know their personal backgrounds, what they did before the civil war and the contributions they made.
