A Friend In Need - US Marines Exhibition

During World War II, thousands of US Marines of the First and Second Divisions were stationed in New Zealand to train for or to recuperate from the war in the Pacific. Many came to Wellington's iconic Old St Paul's church where the United States and US Marine Corps flags still hang in memory of them.
A Friend in Need exhibition marks this significant time in New Zealand's history and will be displayed in the church until 2009. A Friend in Need is about people, filled with bittersweet stories of kindness, friendship, loss and strength of spirit in the face of adversity.
