With this virtual screening, we highlighted the work of Footsteps Researchers, a global team of WWII researchers that helps you retrace the footsteps of those who served in the war.
This talented team was instrumental in locating, gathering, and deciphering many of the archival documents and reports used in constructing the story told in Dear Sirs. For more information about Footsteps Researchers:
