Did you know that the first war the United States fought overseas was the Spanish-American War in 1898? And that it was immediately followed by the Philippine-American War? We are blessed to have several items in our collection from both, including a journal written by a member of Company A, First Nebraska.
Check out our Facebook or Instagram pages to see some of the entries, and a few photos we are very fortunate to have that go along with them! Also – coming up we’ll be hosting Family Game Night at the Museum on December 28th from 6-7:30PM. Join us and play military-themed board games in our America at War exhibit! Come and go as needed and free admission! Comments are closed.
