Program Description

Event Details

Since 2017, the Sequoyah National Research Center has been working to identify all 12,000 American Indians and Alaska Natives that served in World War I. To date, SNRC has identified more than 6,000 men, who served in the military as doctors, bakers, musicians, Code Talkers, and more. Erin Fehr will share some of the stories that have been uncovered and her work with the World War One Valor Medals Review.
