WWII Living History Day in North Texas honors soldiers
GREENVILLE, Texas (AP) — The annual "WWII Living History Day," hosted by the Audie Murphy and American Cotton Museum in Greenville, gave people a chance to walk through history.
The Greenville Herald-Banner reports members of the Able Company camped out in front of the museum in full gear from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. on Saturday. The crew stayed at their camp until Sunday morning, when their gear had dried off from the muggy weather.
Susan Lanning, the executive director of the museum, said the event has generated a lot of interest in previous years. This is the third time that the museum has hosted the event.
"They put everything on for us so there is no charge to the museum," Lanning said.
