The theme for the year was "Learning from the Holocaust: Legacy of Perseverance" and honors the story of Anthony Acevedo, a World War II veteran and Holocaust survivor. Acevedo was a 20 year old medic in the U.S. Army ’s 70th Infantry Division when he, along with 350 U.S. soldiers, was captured by the Germans following the Battle of the Bulge. While a prisoner of war, Acevedo kept a diary of the soldiers’ experiences. In 2010, Acevedo donated his diary to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum along with personal artifacts. Additionally, he became the first Mexican American to register with the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's Holocaust survivor list. In the poster, Acevedo’s Red Cross armband lays across his open journal. The script in the background is a page from the same journal he kept, documenting his experiences as a prisoner of war. The armband is adorned with signatures of fellow prisoners following their liberation by U .S. forces on April 23, 1945. The portrait in the lower right corner is a military photo of Acevedo with an inscription to his significant other, which he sent home prior to his capture.
