DescriptionSixty years ago, a major battle in the midst of the Pacific, fought with aging equipment and inexperienced pilots and against incredible odds, turned the tide of World War II. On June 5, 2002, the Department of the Interior and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service joined with the U.S. Navy in honoring the brave Americans who risked and often gave their lives for our freedom. Under Midway Atoll's bright blue skies, more than 100 veterans, dignitaries, and staff gathered at the National Memorial to the Battle of Midway to commemorate the anniversary. We invite you to share in honoring this significant event in America's history.
