World War II

"Our Boys and Girls in the Armed Forces, 1943-44"

This page is an alphabetical index to a World War II film of Louisville servicemen and women filmed while home on leave in Louisville, Colorado. Many appear in front of their Louisville homes, with their parents, or with Main Street buildings behind them. Other local residents appear too, such as in scenes of Memorial Day parades.

L.C. Graves made this film and generously donated it to the Louisville Historical Commission. The film is in color and runs about 90 minutes. Louisville Historical Commission members Donald Ross and David Ferguson read the names of the people who have been identified.

The DVD is available for purchase from the Museum, and proceeds benefit the Louisville History Foundation. To buy a DVD, or if you can help identify more people in the film, please contact the Museum team at Museum@LouisvilleCO.gov or 303-335-4850.

The numbers after each name show where that person appears in the film.
