🔵 THEIR FINEST HOUR

I came across and wanted to share this wonderful program in the UK to digitally preserve Second World War-related stories and objects before they are lost to history!! the University of Oxford and funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund have organized “digital collection days” for this purpose where folks can bring their items for scanning and recording, to be included in a free-to-use online archive at www.theirfinesthour.org  launching in June 2024.
