Assist in the development and implementation of a World
War II Registry, a database of information about individual
veterans who fought in World War II. Information such as individual
hometowns, branch of service, where each was stationed, where
they fought and other pertinent facts might be included. The
registry is envisioned as a research tool for future generations
to locate information about their grandparents and great-grandparents.
This project will potentially become a national resource for
World War II information and will eventually be placed on
the World Wide Web. |
