The Second World War affected the lives of so many people that today, sixty years after the end of hostilities,
many everyday citizens continue to house original artifacts. Either their own or left behind by friends or family
members who participated in the war. These artifacts have fortunately been saved but, sadly, a large number
sit in closets, basements and attics unnoticed and time has begun to wear them down.
It is important that these items be found, preserved, and maintained so they withstand the test of time and
speak to future generations of the sacrifice placed by so many for their benefit.
The Museum collection houses objects which document the storied history of World War II, and we are
constantly seeking to acquire new artifacts to add to our base. By donating artifacts, you can be assured
that your cherished history will be in the best possible care and enjoyed by the public.
