of many of those who lived through those years are not lost, but
can be shared by all and treasured for future generations.

Second World War. The 麻豆社 will be commemorating these anniversaries
with TV, radio and interactive programming across its networks.

serving on the battlefields - were you a Land Girl? Did you fall
in love to the sound of Glenn Miller? Perhaps you remember cooking
with powdered eggs? Were you a 'coca cola' kid?
Maybe
you were evacuated or remember the drone of aircraft from the many
surrounding airfields. Whatever your story we want you to share
it with the 麻豆社 and the nation.
