MAGGIE

Martha "Colonel Maggie" Raye

This page was last updated on 25 January 2010.

Because Maggie was very patriotic I decided to play "Stars and Stripes Forever" by John Philip Sousa for your listening pleasure.

I have been blessed to know this wonderful American Patriotic woman. I could write tons about LTC Martha "Colonel Maggie" Raye. I've already written one complete book about her, included her in my second book and naturally she is mentioned in my other books as well.

You can read excerpts from my books about Maggie by going to my Tales and Whales Publishing website and clicking on the various book titles. I hope you will purchase both Memories of Maggie and Potpourri Of War to learn some of the things I know about her.

BUT meanwhile, I'd like to share some other aspects of her life with you here. The links I have found on the Internet about her can be found on this website now to learn more about her military involvement, career, personal life, awards, etc. ENJOY!

Here is a photo of her wearing her beloved Green Beret while she sits smoking, drinking and talking to Belle Pellegrino and myself. Sitting left to right is Maggie's nurse, Maggie, Noonie and Belle. Photo by Jim Spitz.
