Often while responding to reference requests, we come across materials that must be shared. These images are a fraction of the photographs we have in the Harmon collection, President of NU from 1950-1965. These images are from the 1944-1945 folder, when Harmon commanded the 1st Armored Division in Italy. Many still have the original descriptions attached. We also have a couple of copies of Harmon's "Personal Memoirs" in the collection - a detailed account of his life and service.

NU Archives is THRILLED to host Col. Leanne Chabior for a special talk later this month here at Norwich. We have a collection featuring her letters, logs, images, and more from her service as commander of the 912th Forward Surgical Team during Operation Enduring Freedom. This collection is amazing, and we cannot wait to hear Col. Chabior share her memories directly with our nursing students and the entire NU community.
