Our Plan

visibility

Visualize

This is a three phased operation (acquire, secure, and memorialize) and the intent is for it to be planned and executed simultaneously using four lines of effort (artifact, fundraising, building, technology), with a local “strike force” serving as the reserve for immediate response to support all four LOEs/committees. The endstate is achieved when all requested memorabilia is owned and managed by the WMA Alumni Association, secured in a Muster and display worthy location, and properly financed for long-term memorialization.
