During the American Heritage Museum’s WWII Tank Demonstration Weekend on Sunday, August 17th, we will honor Purple Heart recipients from all eras and branches of service. This powerful event provides a fitting tribute to the bravery and sacrifice of our nation’s heroes. Purple Heart recipients and their families are encouraged to share their experiences and stories with attendees. At 12:00pm we will have a special commemorative gathering and photo opportunity for all Purple Heart participants and the chance to share stories. We would love to highlight some of the Purple Heart recipients prior to Sunday, August 17. If you are a recipient or know of one and would like to share your story please email Hunter Chaney at hunter@americanheritagemuseum.org ... See MoreSee Less
