Proud to Be is published in partnership with Southeast Missouri State University Press. The anthology series has provided hundreds of veterans, military personnel, and their family members from across the nation a platform for self-expression through writing and photography. Proud to Be serves as both a memorialized representation of the unique aspects of military service in our nation’s history and an opportunity for connection. Proud to Be invites those who have served a space to connect and share experiences. It also offers civilians the ability to bear witness and connect through a richer understanding of military life.
