The World War II Memorial was dedicated in Washington, D.C., May 2004. During its construction, the American Battle Monuments Commission [ABMC] introduced an online World War II Registry to document the participants in history's largest and most devastating war. Americans who served in the armed forces or contributed to the war effort on the home front may register. The registry, which contains more than 2 million records, includes National Archives and Records Administration lists of those killed in World War II and the names of those buried in ABMC overseas cemeteries or listed on its Tablets of the Missing. Placing a name in the registry is free, and entries include information such as name, branch of service, hometown, and a brief narrative of the individual's wartime service. Photos may be submitted.
