Prelude to Invasion / Living History Event and Scout Day
If you have ever been curious about the uniforms, history, tactics, gear, weapons, or morale of U.S. servicemen and the Allies during the turbulent period leading up to D-Day, here is your opportunity to learn more. Meet Omar Bradley at a period command tent, and hear first-hand stories from WWII Veterans. There will be book-signings with authors Bob VandeLinde (Respect: Forgotten Heroes and Korea), Zoe Myers (We Two: A Story of War and Love), and Thomas Carter (Beachhead Normandy: An LCT's Odyssey). Regular admission fees apply. *Scouts are encouraged to attend this event and will receive a discounted admission rate as well as the chance to earn a special patch. Pre-registration of Scouts is required. Contact the Memorial’s Education Department at (540) 586-3329 for more information. Sponsored by Pro Tech Fabrications and American National Bank
