Thread Name: (non music) museum surprise
Subject: (non music) museum surprise
My Uncle served in the Navy duting WWII. During the Normandy invasion his ship was sunk. He was able to grab the ships Navigation charts & jump over board with them. He Kept these charts till he died. He wanted to donate them the Soldiers & Sailors museum in his home town BUT THEY DIDN'T WANT THEM!! We are now looking for proper place to give them to. But still we are shocked that these documents would be turned away. Is this normal?
