37MM and 57MM towed Feild Pieces Restoration

 

Through a generous donation, we have added a 37mm towed field piece, a 57mm towed field piece and a 1/4-ton trailer to our collection. BUT THEY NEED WORK! We have already started the cleaning process, but we need $5,000 for replacement parts and supplies to bring these pieces back to their former glory (and use them in our Living History events!). If you would like to help us restore these beauties, click the donate button on the right.

DIGITAL AND INTERACTIVE MEDAL OF HONOR EXHIBIT

The Medal of Honor is the highest award for valor in action against an enemy force which can be bestowed upon an individual serving in the Armed Services of the United States. Fourteen soldiers from the 36th Infantry Division have earned The Medal of Honor. 


The first Texan to earn the Medal was Milton M. Holland, who received the honor during the Civil War. Holland who was born near Austin, was the also the first African-American recipient from Texas.


Our Medal of Honor recipients were just a few of the heroes who wore the T-Patch of the 36th ID during WWII – this campaign will allow us to better tell the stories behind the close to 10,000 medals earned by members of the 36th ID, Texas National Guard and Texas Air Guard.


The campaign will allow us to purchase the technology needed to complete digitization of the military records and information for all 36th ID soldiers in WWII, and create the exhibit and electronic interface needed to engage visitors. This interactive exhibit will allow visitors to access the information, stories and photos, to help bring these stories to life and see the faces of the soldiers. All of the information will be searchable by name, unit, state, and other vital information. In addition, the exhibit and technology will include the capacity for visitors to send information from the database to their home email address. Eventually we expect to create the ability for people to upload letters home, military records, and other important information to complete the stories of the men and women serving our country. The information will also be available electronically through the Museum website.
