MR. JACK B. TURNER HAS BEEN SELECTED AS OUR LEGACY PERSON FOR THE 1ST QUARTER...

Achieving the financial goal to build and equip the new "Wings of Liberty" Military Museum requires the support from public and private sectors as well as state, and federal government, national and international corporations, businesses, associations, and individuals.
