Virtual presentation: 'Secret Heroes: How Immigrants and Refugees Helped Win WWII'

Camp Ritchie is located in Maryland. During WWII it served as a secret training facility. Its 9,000 soldiers (the "Ritchie Boys") were refugees from German-speaking countries, recruited because of their knowledge of German language and culture. Join us to hear their stories of heroism and patriotism.

Speaker Bernie Ludran will describe the museum and the men and women who served during WWII.
