A display commemorating the anniversaries of the U.S. involvement in World War I and of the Attack on Pearl Harbor will open at The State Museum of Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania at War: The Saga of the USS Pennsylvania spotlights the history and artifacts of the USS Pennsylvania. Launched shortly before the U.S. entered World War I and later damaged during the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the USS Pennsylvania served as the flagship of the U.S. Navy.
Chronicling the ship’s incredible witness to history, this special display will open on Sunday, December 4 at 2 PM. Scott LaMar, host and executive producer of WITF-FM’s Smart Talk, will serve as guest speaker for the opening of the display located on the first floor of the museum. This event is included with general museum admission.
Pennsylvania at War will be on display through December 30, 2017.
