Explore the "Victory in Europe" and Follow "In the Footsteps of the Monuments Men" with experts and veterans who were there with The National WWII Museum Tours.
The National WWII Museum is showing its appreciation to local supporters by once again offering half-priced admission to Louisiana residents during the month of September, which also marks the 75th anniversary of Victory over Japan Day (V-J Day) on September 2 and the official ending of World War II.
The National WWII Museum today announced two distinct student travel programs that allow high school and college students the opportunity to earn college credit while exploring the leadership lessons and real-life decision-making scenarios of World War II. Both Normandy Academy and Student Leadership Academy will provide students with an unique educational journey that challenges them to learn from choices made during the WWII era.
To commemorate the anniversary of Franklin D. Roosevelt's death, we sat down with his biographer, Nigel Hamilton, PhD.
