Join us Nov. 3, 2023, as we show ABMC's centennial documentary, “Our Promise: 100 Years of The American Battle Monuments Commission” at the National Museum of the American Indian at the Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House in New York City.

Since its beginning, ABMC has been focused on ensuring the stories of those who dedicated their lives to the service of our nation, are not lost.

From misty mornings in Normandy to golden hour in the Philippines, the 56-min movie features next-of-kin, employees at different levels, Americans at sites abroad with their families, citizens of other countries who work at sites and whose ancestors fought alongside Americans – all sharing what it means to be involved in the process of caring for, maintaining, and honoring the legacy of those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

A Q&A session will follow the screening in presence of:

• ABMC Chief of Staff Michael Conley

• ABMC Historian Benjamin Brands

• ABMC Museum Curator Charlotte Josnard

• Debby Cheshewalla, niece of Pvt. Andrew Perry buried at Rhone American Cemetery, France
