Operation Homecoming: Literary Programming<br />
for Veterans and their Families – Since 2004, the NEA<br />
Operation Homecoming writing program has preserved the<br />
stories of U.S. military personnel and their families. With<br />
support from The Boeing Com<strong>pa</strong>ny, Operation Homecoming<br />
has brought 59 writing workshops to troops at 27 domestic<br />
and overseas military installations. In tandem with the<br />
workshops, the Arts Endowment offered an open call for<br />
writing submissions to active military personnel and their<br />
families. This ongoing call has resulted in more than 1,200<br />
submissions and 12,000 <strong>pa</strong>ges of writings. Almost 100 of<br />
the submissions to the NEA were featured in the anthology<br />
Operation Homecoming: Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Home<br />
Front in the Words of U.S. Troops and Their Families<br />
(Random House, 2006). Operation Homecoming was named<br />
one of the “Best of 2006” in nonfiction by The Washington<br />
Post Book World.<br />
