World War II impacted every town and city across the United States.
The towns and villages of Adams County, Pennsylvania were no
different. Over 100 servicemen from Adams County were killed in
action or died of their wounds in World War II. Of those, over a
dozen were ultimately buried in Gettysburg National Cemetery. Some
of these men were born and raised in Gettysburg. Others were tied
to Adams County by their careers, education, or family. What they
all had in common was they all called this area home. Join Park
Ranger Dan Vermilya to explore the stories of these native sons of
Adams County who made the ultimate sacrifice in the Second World
War.
