I took these pictures at the Bedford Boys Tribute Center in Bedford, Virginia. It is a wonderful tribute to a group of young men from Bedford who gave the ultimate sacrifice on D-Day during WWII.

This used to be Green’s Drugstore. Now it is a museum for D-Day and the Bedford Boys.

I had the pleasure of meeting the curators, Ken and Linda. Ken gave me an excellent tour of the museum.
Linda points to a picture of her father.
These items belonged to Bedford veterans who served during WWII.
