The Jeeps are Coming!
Work is in progress for the upcoming exhibit Everyone Has a Jeep,
including the transport of three jeeps from Orlando,
Florida, to The National D-Day Museum in New Orleans. The exhibit will be
the Museums largest macro exhibit to date, though
our Capital Expansion plans include space for more macro exhibits. The
exhibit opens May 1st, May Day or Labor Day in
Europe, and runs through September 6th, Labor Day in the United States.
The dates were chosen to commemorate the workers on
both sides of the Atlantic whose labors made Allied victory possible. The
jeeps and dozens of other vintage military vehicles
will be parked outside for the June 5 6 60th Anniversary commemoration
weekend. Not only will they be on display, but we
will start them up in an engine run up demonstration slated for 8:30 a.m.
on Sunday, June 6. Click here for more 60th
Anniversary commemorative events
