Over 16 million Americans served in WWII, each with their own unique story filled with courage, sacrifice, drama, heroism, humor, and love. The mission of Footsteps Research is to bring your loved one’s story to life using professional research, historical records, and archival photos. The finished product is the priceless storytelling of your loved-one’s WWII experience that can be shared with family and friends both in print and online. Our customers are children and grandchildren of WWII veterans, looking to research their loved-one’s unique role in the war effort. Our research goes beyond the basics and involves manual searches of the National Archives, newspaper vaults, historical photo libraries, the Veterans History Project, obituaries, and much more. Customers provide us with their veteran’s name, serial number, and any other information/photos that they possess and our team of researchers goes to work to piece together their story and timeline, all the way down to where the veteran was each day of the war.
