Operation Gratitude
The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum celebrates Hall of Famers’ service to their country year-round in the iconic Plaque Gallery. A total of 68 Hall of Famers – almost a quarter of all enshrined in Cooperstown – served in the Armed Forces during wartime. Join the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in honoring the men and women of the Armed Forces.
On May 28th from 12pm-2pm, visitors will have the opportunity to honor the military personnel and veterans by taking some time out of their day to write a letter to thank our soldiers and veterans. All letters will then be sent to Operation Gratitude.
