    Idaho’s Medal of Honor Recipients
    by Bill Corbett

    Within the heart of any soldier lies an enormous number of conflicting emotions, some having to do with trying to survive combat, and some being concerned with making sure the mission at hand is accomplished. But a few soldiers also display incredible courage, amazing fortitude, and a selfless disregard for personal safety in hazardous circumstances. Here you will find some of Idaho’s most heroic and courageous citizens and sons, just in time to celebrate July 4th.

    Cataldo—Spotlight City
    by Mike Kincaid

    by Lowell Vanskike

If not, you will still be fascinated by this account of how the metals we all use or the tons of coal we employ to produce energy for industry or our homes are extracted from locations far beneath the earth’s surface.
