I work in the Curatorial Department which oversees the collection of artifacts. I have seen several of the "behind the lines" tours come through our department and they are always amazing. The visitors get an incredible experience as they get to have a "hands on" connection with the artifacts they are shown while being given an explanation by an expert in this field of history. I have yet to see anyone come out of the collections room less than ecstatic and thrilled about the tour. If you have the opportunity when you visit New Orleans to come to our museum be prepared to spend at least one full day to take it all in as well as being sure to inquire about these tours.

It's also important that the stories of the men and women involved in World War II are preserved as well. Historynet.com has already written an article on The Greatest Generations Foundation, but they are now embarking on a great project that will help preserve these stories. The Legacy Project involves building a center in Normandy for WWII veterans to visit and get closure on their experiences before the opportunity is gone. I donated to the project at their website at tggf.org. It is so important that pieces of history like these are preserved.
