Join The National WWII Museum as it opens its latest special exhibition, On American Shores: The Aleutian Islands Campaign. This new exhibit examines the often-overlooked Japanese invasion of the Aleutian Islands in Alaska and the subsequent efforts to repulse the only seizure of North American soil that occurred during World War II.

On American Shores: The Aleutian Islands Campaign will be on display from March 26, 2025, through January 11, 2026, in The Joe W. and Dorothy D. Brown Foundation Special Exhibit Gallery.

The exhibition, located on the second floor of Louisiana Memorial Pavilion, will be open for viewing before and after the presentation. Registration is encouraged but not required. If you cannot make it to the Museum for this event, you can watch live through Vimeo.
