The 2007 Americans At War© Calendar has been produced by the U.S. Naval Institute and is a part of the Heritage Collection of photographs, oral histories and film. The Americans at War© video series is a living history of American combat veterans in their own words from their own experiences. Featuring veterans from World War II to the present, Americans at War© explores the heroics and the horrors but most importantly the humanity of individuals thrust into unimaginable, often impossible circumstances, who did their duty fighting to preserve the American way of life. These are very personal true stories.
