 m 1914-1918, was the modern world’s first international conflict. Approxima
 tely 11 million soldiers were killed, and the war's toll including civilian
  casualties exceeded 20 million. The United States, by declaration of Presi
 dent Woodrow Wilson, formally entered the war Apr. 6, 1917. By Armistice Da
 y, Nov. 11, 1918, more than 116,000 Americans died as a result of the war. 
 Of these, more than 1,600 were Knights of Columbus. Both the first and last
  American military officers to die during the war were K of C members.<br /
 ><br />In addition to Knights who served on the battlefield as soldiers, th
 e Order was active in war relief efforts, managing highly successful fundra
 ising drives and providing hospitality to servicemen in America and abroad 
 through Knights of Columbus recreation centers known as “huts.”<br /><br />
 The impact of World War I was felt for generations. Methods of warfare were
  forever altered. The map of Europe was completely redrawn at the conclusio
 n of the war, and decisions that followed may be attributed to the start of
  World War II in 1939. No one was unaffected during this time period.<br />
 <br />The Knights of Columbus Museum commemorates the 100th anniversary of 
 the United States’ participation in the war with an exhibition, <span><stro

 e: 10pt;">World War I: Beyond the Front Lines</span></em></strong></span> (
 Apr. 6, 2017-Dec. 30, 2018). The exhibition provides an historical retrospe
 ctive of the war and includes interactives, images and artifacts from the K
 nights of Columbus Museum collection, Supreme Council archives and borrowed
  materials from private lenders and organizations. A series of WWI-related 
 lectures and presentations will be offered throughout the course of the exh
 ibition.<br /><br /><br /><br />
