Texas World War II Museum Completes Expansion

The George H.W. Bush Gallery just opened as part of a $14.5-million expansion at the National Museum of the Pacific War in Fredericksburg.

The new complex of World War II exhibits include the “Island‐hopping Campaign” as the Allied troops advanced to Tokyo, plus several home front exhibits – the Japanese‐American internment camps, Gold Star Mothers, wartime factories and shipyards, and the USO and Red Cross. Interactive features have been designed to lure younger audiences to the museum.
