For one New River Valley family, that became a reality when six brothers fought during World War II or the Korean War. Named after their small neighborhood in Giles County, today the brothers are still known as the Maybrook Men. The war took these then small town Giles County boys all over the world. The only two brothers still living are John Atkins, 96, of Christiansburg, and June Atkins, 100, of Maybrook. Full Screen 1 / 7 Meet the six Giles County brothers -- Harry, June, John, Curtis, David and Billy -- known as the Maybrook Men.
