World War II: Voices of Service explores major events of the war through the photographs, letters, and oral histories of everyday Americans. From the attack on Pearl Harbor through the GI Bill, this traveling exhibition provides an overview of important events on the battlefield and the home front.
This exhibition was funded through a grant from the Veterans Legacy Grant Program. Each panel highlights the experiences of men and women interred in National Cemeteries with a special Soldier Spotlight. The exhibition commemorates WWII Veterans and Service members through the discovery and sharing of their stories, reminding viewers that it was individual Americans from all walks of life whose service and sacrifice led to Allied victory. We invite you to use this exhibition as an example to learn more about the service of Veterans in your community.
