SUMMARY:African American Veterans Monument Dedication & Unveiling
DESCRIPTION:Witness the dedication and unveiling of the Nation’s First African American Veterans Monument honoring all African American veterans who have served this country since the Revolutionary War! Tickets are free and can be reserved online by following this link.The dedication and unveiling of the African American Veterans Monument is a significant event that will commemorate and preserve the legacy of African American military service members in defense of our Nation. African Americans have served in all 12 of the country’s major conflicts dating back to the Revolutionary War in 1775. The monument will be the first in the United States that collectively celebrates the contributions of African American veterans. The African American Veterans Monument is intended to raise the consciousness of visitors by providing individuals\, both young and old\, with the opportunity to learn about African American cultural history. The African American Veterans Monument will have a significant impact on visitors to the Buffalo and Erie County Naval & Military Park\, Canalside\, the waterfront\, and the Erie Basin Marina. It will provide an opportunity to learn more about the sacrifices and contributions made by African Americans amid extremely challenging times including slavery\, segregation\, and discrimination. Only a small percentage of African American veterans’ stories are known publicly. This interactive exhibit will provide visitors with a virtual reality tour including historical information on each conflict and personal accounts from African American soldiers and/or their respective families.  \n\n\nTime & Location\nSaturday\, September 24 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM\n1 Marine Dr\, Buffalo\, NY 14202

SUMMARY:Speaker Series: The Legacy and Loss of USS Juneau
DESCRIPTION:On November 13\, 1942\, a violent explosion engulfed USS Juneau (CL-52) and the ship seemed to vanish from sight. Catastrophically hit by torpedoes from Japanese submarine I-26\, the ship sank in less than a minute with most of its 693 crewmen onboard. About 115 Sailors survived the sinking\, but only 10 were rescued after days at sea. The story of service and sacrifice of USS Juneau\, particularly the loss of the five Sullivan brothers\, had a powerful impact on the U.S. Navy and the nation as a whole\, then and today. The discovery of the wreck on March 17\, 2018 off the coast of the Solomon Islands has provided the Navy with an opportunity to corroborate the historical records and try to answer some of history’s lingering questions. \nOn Veterans Day – Friday\, November 11\, the Buffalo Naval & Military Park is honored to welcome Blair Atcheson to Buffalo to discuss the legacy and loss of USS Juneau. She is the Program Manager for the Naval History and Heritage Command’s (NHHC) Underwater Archaeology Branch\, located in Washington\, DC. NHHC is responsible for the management\, research\, preservation\, and interpretation of the U.S. Navy’s sunken and terrestrial military craft. A collection that includes over 3\,000 shipwrecks and 14\,000 aircraft wrecks dispersed world-wide and which date from the American Revolution to the nuclear age. The study of USS Juneau fulfills the Underwater Archaeology Branch’s mission to interpret\, manage\, and protect the Navy’s shipwrecks\, but also serves as a way to honor the service of the ship and crew. \nThe speaker series program will begin at 4:00 PM in the Buffalo Naval Park’s Hangar Building. It is free and open to the public\, and light refreshments will be available for purchase. Please register to reserve your seat.
