Archivist Randy Sowell will join us virtually from the Truman Presidential Library. His presentation will feature letters, reports, personnel records, and audiovisual resources relating to the Korean War that the Harry S. Truman Library has received or made available online over the past 10 years.

The 2025 programming season is dedicated to our nation’s veterans. The Eisenhower Museum was originally founded as a tribute to WWII veterans. Join us as we continue to uphold the legacy of honoring those who served.
