Focus On is a platform for the Museum to highlight an event from World War II and examine that event through the use of the Museum’s collections. By presenting still images, artifacts, maps, documents and motion pictures, the Museum highlights the human side of the conflict. World War II was the most destructive war in history; when examined as a whole the scale becomes overwhelming. The Museum hopes that by focusing on the stories of the common person in the war, people today may form a better understanding of the forces that participated in the war that changed the world.
