SUMMARY:Screening of ABMC Documentary\, Never Forgotten at 2015 GI Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:The ABMC documentary Never Forgotten premiered at the 2015 GI Film Festival. \nScreening of Never Forgotten\nSaturday\, May 23\, 2105 at 3:30 p.m.\nAngelika at Mosaic\n2911 District Ave\nFairfax\, VA 22031 \nAbout the Film: \nThe doughboys of World War I readily wore the American uniform\, prepared to fight for the freedom of people they had never met. These doughboys came from big cities and farms. They left behind wives and children. They worked at sawmills\, law practices and factories. They came from different backgrounds\, but they all fought under the same flag. Never Forgotten follows the story of Sergeant Paul Maynard\, a doughboy from Connecticut. Among the first to volunteer for the Army\, Paul survived some of the most brutal fighting American forces endured\, including the Battle of Belleau Wood\, the Saint-Mihiel Campaign\, and the Meuse-Argonne Offensive. \nNearly 100 years have passed since American forces helped turn the tide of World War I on the bloodied grounds of France. The heroic sacrifices made during this epic struggle are destined to drift from memory\, unless Americans today continue to tell the stories of these doughboys. In Never Forgotten\, Paul’s grandniece\, Lisa Ann Maynard\, and ABMC Superintendent\, Dave Bedford\, tell Paul’s story in an effort to ensure that his legacy\, and the legacies of all Americans who fought during the Great War\, are never forgotten.

SUMMARY:Rededication of West Coast Memorial
DESCRIPTION:ABMC Secretary Max Cleland along with Presidio Trust Executive Director Craig Middleton laid a wreath at the West Coast Memorial\, located within the Presidio of San Francisco\, to rededicate the memorial on Monday\, November 17\, 2014. Extensive upgrades have been made to the site to improve the wheelchair accessibility. \nThe memorial was built in the late 1950s above the Pacific Ocean by the American Battle Monuments Commission. It honors members of the Armed Forces who lost their lives in the Pacific coastal waters during World War II. \nThe names of 413 service men and women are inscribed on the curved granite wall that sits behind a statue of Columbia\, the female personification of America often used in wartime imagery. The memorial was designed by two San Francisco architects\, Hervey Parke Clark and John F. Beuttler\, with famous landscape architect Lawrence Halprin\, who also designed the grounds of the Letterman Digital Arts Center. The Columbia statue was made by sculptor Jean De Marco in New York City. A dedication ceremony occurred at the memorial on November 29\, 1960\, where General John L. DeWitt and Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz delivered addresses.
