Veterans Share Memories at County Museum

SAN BERNARDINO>> The San Bernardino County Museum invited veterans and active military to join us on Tuesday, Nov. 22 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. to share their stories on video. These oral histories became part of the museum’s current exhibit, “Over Here, Over There,” and will be preserved for future generations in the museum’s archives. “The story of America is the story of the American veteran, those exceptional men and women of every ethnicity, creed, and circumstance who fought for the freedoms that constitute the cornerstone of our democracy,” said David Myers, the museum’s curator of visitor engagement and exhibits. “You have a uniquely American story of duty, sacrifice, and honor. You fought for your country, now come share why.” Members of the military and their families are admitted to the museum free during the entire month of November in recognition of Military Families Month. “Over Here, Over There,” the collecting of oral history and the County Museum’s other events and exhibits reflect the effort by the Board of Supervisors to achieve the Countywide Vision by celebrating arts, culture and education in the county, creating quality of life for residents and visitors. The San Bernardino County Museum is at 2024 Orange Tree Lane, at the California Street exit from Interstate 10 in Redlands. The museum is open Tuesdays through Sundays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
