Memorial Day
John Dunlop
Today we remember all service women and men who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of this country, and we give thanks to all courageous people in uniform.
New Orleans has a long and storied military history, including its significant contribution to the United States’ war effort during World War II. The National WWII Museum in New Orleans tells the story of the American experience in the war that changed the world—why it was fought, how it was won, and what it means today—so that all generations will understand the price of freedom and be inspired by what they learn.
