81st Commemoration of the Battle of Midway

Friends of Midway Atoll (FOMA) hosted a virtual gathering to commemorate the 81st Anniversary of the Battle of Midway on June 7th, 2023, at the Battle of Midway National Memorial on Midway Atoll. Through a Zoom meeting and the use of a new Starlink connection, FOMA was able to include living Battle of Midway veterans and their family members in the ceremony.

It is history which must be remembered. The sacrifices of the USN, USAF and ground forces must not be forgotten. A salute from England.
