"Soldier's Sacrifice" Armistice Day

Exactly one hundred years ago today, the major powers of the world sat at a table to sign the document ending the terrible war that had taken millions of lives. The armistice ending World War I was signed ending the hostilities, and was celebrated around the world as Armistice Day. This day was used to remember all of the soldiers who perished in World War I, and was later incorporated into a day to remember all veterans. Today, remember that freedom and peace cost a dear price and please thank a veteran.

The museum will continue to feature "Soldier's Sacrifice" posts to remember the servicemen who perished after the armistice was signed and how World War I affected Scott County.
