Noted World War II Military Historian William L. McGee Selects National Museum of the Pacific War as Recipient of Research and Writing Files

Noted World War II military historian, William L. McGee, selected The National Museum of the Pacific War in Fredericksburg, Texas as the permanent World War II military archive for his research and writing files.

The National Museum of the Pacific (formerly The Admiral Nimitz Museum) was chosen for its "dedication to perpetuating the memory of the Pacific Theater of WWII in order that the sacrifices of those who contributed to our victory may never be forgotten".

McGee's archival materials represent two decades of research and writing for four books on WWII military history in the Pacific Theater.

The Marine Corps League praised McGee's work with "Enough gripping drama, heroism, and heartbreak in McGee's almost encyclopedic work to supply Hollywood with material for a century."...
