Join Park Ranger Dan Vermilya for this special program exploring the significance of Pearl Harbor through the stories of those impacted by the events of December 7, 1941. This program follows the stories of WWII soldiers, sailors, and marines who were killed in the Pacific Theater of WWII and eventually reburied in the Gettysburg National Cemetery.
In November 1942, General Dwight D. Eisenhower led Operation Torch, the Allied offensive in North Africa. For the 80th anniversary of Operation Torch, we asked our 2022 World War II Weekend volunteers to share some of their thoughts on why WWII still matters for us today.
