During World War II, 114 men and one woman from IBM made the supreme sacrifice in the service of their country.

Six of those men came from Poughkeepsie. The images in the slideshow below are from the book handed out at the Memorial dedication in Poughkeepsie, New York on September 27, 1947. My thanks to those who shared this book with me. It is the complement to the Endicott book. May it remind us of the sacrifices that were made during World War II and all the wars we have fought in the name of peace, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
