The Women they Left Behind

The Women they Left Behind

This lesson explores the fragmented stories of four women, whose lives were affected by one man’s service during World War II. Activities in this lesson encourage learners to piece together personal stories of women affected by war and loss, no matter how little we can infer about them from historical documents. Learn their stories through primary sources including family photos, letters and military documents.
