For any Arkansans reading this blog–you know who you are, and Kansans know how to pronounce “Arkansas” correctly–you may be interested in this free poster for Arkansas Heritage Month, which features Arkansans going off to war.  See this link for details:  http://www.arkansasheritage.com/storyline/a-state-of-war-arkansas-remembers-world-war-i

A very nice poster.  Kudos to whoever came up with it!
