O'Donnell is the creator of The Drop Zone (www.thedropzone.org), the first virtual community for WWII veterans and the interested public dedicated to collecting and sharing the stories of the war. The site has won praise from newspapers across the country such as The Wall Street Journal, which said, "The Drop Zone presents the remarkable and often terrifying war stories of U.S. Army Airborne and Ranger troops.
