.⁦@HeartMountainWY⁩ My heart is broken- heard that Secretary Norman Mineta just passed away. Norm was just a child when he was incarcerated along with over 10,000 individuals at Heart Mountain. He was our guiding light who served as a cabinet member two administrations 💔

Throughout our country’s history, women have made invaluable contributions to America’s war efforts both at home and abroad, which in turn, helped fuel their efforts towards true equality. Today and every day, we honor their service and sacrifice. 🙏

📸 Then and now: Manila American Cemetery.
In 1955, freshly-installed headstones were inspected and cleaned by cemetery workers who removed any potential stains. Today, our cemetery staff still take the greatest care of the more than 16,000 marble headstones.

As part of #WomensHistoryMonth, we honor the immeasurable contributions women have made in 🇺🇸 history, as well as those who made the ultimate sacrifice on distant fields.
