The National WWII Museum deploys social media to support our Veterans through our "Thank You For Our Freedom" campaign.

The National WWII Museum launches myveteransday.org, which introduces the "Thank You for My Freedom" campaign honoring veterans of all eras, and challenges Americans to give a "million thanks"

The National WWII Museum is on the cusp of its 15th Anniversary, and as staff members prepare for the occasion, they’re also celebrating an extraordinary new record – 73,449 Museum visitors in March 2015, a 31 percent increase from March 2014. This new high point for attendance in a single month comes on the heels of two recent achievements for the Museum – more than 515,000 visitors in 2014, a 14 percent increase from the previous year, and the opening of the latest pavilion on the growing campus, Campaigns of Courage: European and Pacific Theaters.

As the world celebrated victory over Nazi Germany and the boys eventually did come home, the war they fought thousands of miles from American shores came home with them. It came home with them in their wounds, in their memories, in their daily life…in their nightmares.

When the Nazis came to clear out the Warsaw Ghetto, they were met with fierce resistance.
