MON MAY 27, MEMORIAL DAY, PRE98 WEEKLY NEWS UPDATE #226

News from the office:  Memorial Day is a very important event here with us at Pre98 because our Nation commemorates the sacrifice of our citizen soldiers who paid the ultimate price in service to their country.  Because of the unique nature of our work, we see tangible reminders of this sacrifice every time we step into our office; we are immersed in the process of preserving our military history through both the curation of the actual arms used in battle but just importantly by the stories and tangible links to the past they represent.  

We appreciate your significant effort to preserve this history with us as you become caretakers of these artifacts and share their meaning with others.  All Americans turn their thoughts to this sacrifice on Memorial Day but you keep the flame of remembrance glowing every day with your preservation of these important links to the challenges we once faced to preserve our way of life.  This is true patriotism and we all benefit from it.

Please make an appointment if you are stopping by the office.   We are more than happy to pull something for you to look at if you have an interest; we just need to know in advance and don’t mind a visit.
