Tribute to a Generation, National World War II Reunion
http://www.folklife.si.edu/CFCH/WWII/WorldWarII.htm

Tribute to a Generation is sponsored by the Smithsonian Center for
Folklife and National Culture. You'll find the schedule for the World
War II reunion, the major four-day event beginning on May 27 that will
take place on the National Mall at a series of tented pavilions and
stages. The Reunion is free and open to the public, but if you can't
make the ceremony, you can still browse the site. The Veteran's History
Project in particular is where you can 'Tell Your Story,' 'See and Hear
World War II stories' and access the 'Experiencing War' home page to
view more stories. After exploring the different resources, you'll see
that this generation of soldiers is certainly due a tribute!

The dedication of the World War II Memorial is also slated during this
Memorial Day Weekend. Stop by the Memorial Home Page at
http://www.wwiimemorial.com/ and take a few minutes to explore the
'first national memorial dedicated to all who served during the Second
World War,' the memorial that 'honors all military veterans of the war,
the citizens on the home front, the nation at large, and the high moral
purpose and idealism that motivated the nation's call to arms.'
