The conclusion of World War II in Europe brought in its wake the largest movement of peoples and populations in European history.

Private First Class Ferris LeBlanc served his country honorably during World War II. But the credit due to him was denied thanks to the tragic circumstances of his death in the Up Stairs Lounge fire in 1973.

Sophie Scholl and the White Rose movement, while less known to Americans, is a powerful example of youthful resistance to the Nazi Regime.

The National WWII Museum presents a new exhibit, "Guests of the Third Reich," which explores life of American POWs in Europe.

The Museum is deeply saddened by the loss of WWII veteran and Trustee Emeritus Richard “Dick” Duchossois, who served in five European campaigns, earning two Bronze Stars, a Purple Heart, and the French Legion of Honor.
