What Will Your Legacy Be?
The mission of the American Veterans Center and the World War II
Veterans Committee is to protect the legacy and honor the sacrifice of
America’s veterans, of every generation.
Thanks to the service and sacrifice of those men and women who
fought our enemies to preserve our freedom, we are able to enjoy the
liberties that are unique to America.
Every day, we continue to lose World War II, Korea, and Vietnam
veterans, and their memories and experiences will pass on with them
unless the American Veterans Center is able to preserve their legacy
and history for future generations.
Col. William Bower, USAF-Ret veteran of the Doolittle Raid on
Tokyo, meets with students from the Young Marines program.
The American Veterans Center and the World War II Veterans
Committee are committed to preserving the legacy of our
veterans from the Greatest Generation to the latest generation.
You can continue to help us in that mission by naming the American
Veterans Center and the World War II Veterans Committee in your
estate plans, which ensures that your legacy continues to preserve and
promote the virtues of service, valor, and sacrifice for future generations. Without your support, this vital mission would not be
possible.
