Summary

A woman weeps over a headstone at the Central Texas State Veterans Cemetery after placing a Christmas wreath on it Nov. 30, 2013. More than 1,000 volunteers from the Fort Hood/Killeen area joined family members of the fallen to place more than 5,000 wreaths on the grave markers at the cemetery. The event is organized by the Friends of the Central Texas State Veterans Cemetery and is in its eighth year. The wreaths will remain on the markers through the holiday season, and will be removed the first Sunday in January. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Ken Scar, 7th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment)

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
