On June 6, 1944, 2,510 Americans gave their lives in the fight to liberate France and Europe from Nazi tyranny as a part of the D-Day invasion of Normandy. Eighty-one years later, The National WWII Museum pays tribute to their sacrifice through a moving visual display of luminaria representing the lives of each servicemember lost on D-Day throughout the grounds of its New Orleans campus. This tribute display is free and open to the public with more information coming soon.
