The National WWII Museum's annual celebration of the values and spirit of those who served our country during World War II and throughout history.

How the looming Cold War convinced Americans to keep troops in Europe after the war.

The National WWII Museum today announced a new special exhibition: State of Deception: The Power of Nazi Propaganda, a traveling exhibition from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC. The exhibition, which opens to the public on January 27, explores how the Nazi propaganda machine used biased information to sway public opinion in the years leading up to and during World War II. Organized chronologically, the exhibition is a rich multimedia experience that examines the definition of propaganda, how it operates, why it works and why it is so important to protect ourselves from its dangers.

Join us for an evening discussion featuring Ian Toll and our very own Rob Citino, as they discuss the third and final volume of Toll’s “Pacific War Trilogy,” Twilight of the Gods.

Despite facing resistance and discrimination, more than 150,000 women served in the Women's Army Corps during World War II, performing vital noncombat roles and paving the way for women's permanent inclusion in the US military.
