Mary went on to serve in the War as a WAC in the U.S. Army, her brother John served in the British Royal Marines Commandos and fought on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, and their brother Tommy served in the U.S. Army and was killed in a training accident in Texas. Theresa always wished she had learned more about her mother's and uncles' service before they died and feels honored to have had the opportunity to interview the veterans featured in We Had A Job To Do.
