NATO presents 60 years of Alliance history

On 19 December, NATO launched its 60th anniversary web site featuring videos, documents, and images from NATO’s past. Among other activities, site visitors may browse photos of women soldiers from the 1950s, watch videos celebrating early NATO Allies, and attend the lectures of NATO’s Jamie Shea, who holds forth on Alliance history in his own online classroom.

The 60th anniversary web site is one of a number of NATO activities taking place in the run-up to the 60th anniversary Summit, to be held on 3-4 April, 2009, in Strasbourg, France and Kehl, Germany.
