New Veterans Memorial, Museum Opens

The new National Veterans Memorial and Museum in Columbus, Ohio opened recently. The goal of the museum, located in downtown Columbus and designated by Congress as a 'national site,' is to tell veterans’ individual stories, as well as focus on their shared experiences throughout history. The project was the idea of astronaut John Glenn, a World War II veteran and former U.S. Senator from Ohio. For more information, visit the National Veterans Memorial and Museum website.
