Americans who fought, died, and are buried overseas made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedoms. Among our several programs, we engage today’s younger generations to learn the relevance of such sacrifice to their lives.
THE PRESENCE OF MEMORIES – WORTHY OF 250 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE!
France, September 16–21, 2026
This one-of-a-kind, first-class, private event takes special note of America’s Semiquincentennial and our allies through two world wars. It includes behind-the-scenes tours of five ABMC American military cemeteries and memorials; seminars by ABMC historians and military experts; private tours of world-class museums; an extraordinary tour of the battle sites at Normandy; a visit to the eighth-century refuge, Mont Saint-Michel; first-class lodging; meals of locally-sourced foods and wines; a Seine River dinner cruise on our private top deck; and other curated cultural experiences.
This unique trip will focus on the stories of the fallen heroes of World War I and World War II and the relevance of their sacrifice to today’s geopolitics.
