Thanks to the efforts of hundreds of volunteers from all 50 states and more than a dozen other countries, 52,000+ US World War II fallen now each have a story. See https://www.fold3.com/partner/stories-behind-the-stars. It took 34 days to add this most recent 2,000 stories as of August 21, 2024.
Stories completed so far includes all of the 2,341 Pearl Harbor fallen, all of the 2,502 US D-Day fallen, and all of the 8,500 US World War II fallen buried at Arlington National Cemetery.
So far this year, our volunteers completed the stories of all the WWII fallen lost on SS Leopoldville and all those associated with the state of Nevada. Another major project will be announced soon.
We can always use more volunteers to work on the remaining 369,000 stories. To find out how to volunteer, visit https://www.storiesbehindthestars.org/volunteer
