The Monuments Men Foundation today announced that its collection will have a new home at The National WWII Museum in New Orleans.
With George Lucas’ Red Tails soaring at the box office, The National WWII Museum announces its acquisition and restoration of a P-51 Mustang, the aircraft depicted in Hollywood’s drama about the courageous fighter pilots known as the Tuskegee Airmen.
Actor and humanitarian Gary Sinise, along with his Gary Sinise Foundation, and The National WWII Museum are partnering to give a group of 55 Southern California veterans the opportunity to visit the Museum that honors their service. The veterans will arrive in New Orleans on June 24 to kick-off two days of exploring the Museum alongside Sinise.
The National WWII Museum mourns the loss of WWII veteran, Museum volunteer, and dear friend Herman “Dutch” Prager Jr., who passed away recently at age 99.
