Days of Remembrance

For Your Freedom and Ours

Days of Remembrance, April 27 - May 4, 2003

The United States Congress established the Days of Remembrance as our nation's annual commemoration of the victims of the Holocaust, and mandated the creation of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum as a permanent living memorial to the six million Jews as well as millions of others murdered by the Nazi regime and its collaborators. The Museum has designated “For Your Freedom and Ours” as the theme for the 2003 Days of Remembrance in honor, and in remembrance, of those courageous individuals in the Warsaw ghetto who valiantly rose up against their Nazi oppressors sixty years ago.
