Grab your pencils and crayons and draw along with Museum Curator Larry Decuers as he doodles some aircraft from The National WWII Museum's collection.

This program will be a conversation between Jason Dawsey, PhD, of The National WWII Museum's Institute for the Study of War and Democracy, and Michael Neiberg, PhD, inaugural Chair of War Studies in the Department of National Security and Strategy at the United States Army War College.

Join Museum Curator Larry Decuers for a look at some of the A-2 leather flight jackets in The National WWII Museum collection.

The National WWII Museum was founded to help celebrate our country’s “citizen soldiers”—everyday Americans who came together in response to a world in crisis.

At a time when every American was called upon to contribute to the war effort—whether by enlisting, buying bonds, or collecting scrap metal—the use of American animals during World War II further demonstrates the resourcefulness of the US military and the many sacrifices that led to the Allies’ victory.
