More than 40 World War II veterans who participated in the D-Day Invasion gathered recently to help open an exhibit recounting their wartime experiences on D- Day, June 6, 1944. The new 6,000 square-foot "Down to Earth: The 507th Parachute Infantry Regiment and the Air Invasion of Normandy" exhibit at the Museum of Aviation at Robins Air Force Base, Ga. is one of the most comprehensive exhibits ever built at the Museum. "Down To Earth" is a permanent, walk-through, sight-and-sound interactive exhibit that is now open free to the public every day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. except Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day. For more information, visit Museum of Aviation website.
Find in-depth professional content, vintage military newsreels and the latest "Doonesbury at War" comic strip on Warfighter's Forum.
