OUR MISSION
History is one of the most important academic pursuits of any child’s education. Studying our great country’s history and the sacrifices made by so many to secure our freedoms, shapes the way our young people think about the United States and our standing within the world. The retelling of our nation’s important events and acts of heroism by everyday Americans can also serve to inspire our youth to greatness in themselves. They gain an appreciation and love of our country and help shape a positive world for future generations. It is apparent that far too often, our children don’t quite understand what makes this country so great.
​
The American History Museum will be a place for veterans to come and tell their story of service to our great Country.

The organization plans to incorporate the following exhibit locations in the museum:
​
1. World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, and
Gulf War.
2. Display for local veterans to tell their story.
3. Display of local aviation and the Blair County
Airport.
​
Of greater importance, this museum will be a place where schools can bring students and learn about the events that made America great.
Through guest speakers and other displays, students will learn about subjects such as:
World War II
Pearl Harbor
Dolittle Raiders
D-Day
Iwo Jima
Dropping of the Atomic Bomb
Tuskegee Airmen
Navajo Code Talkers
