BRITSBURGH FESTIVAL-“Say Hello to Your Cousin”: An American Soldier in Britain

September 7 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

$20 – $30

In honor of the 80th anniversary of D-Day, join us as we follow a Western Pennsylvanian member of the 29th Infantry Division as he trains in Britain.  The 29th was the second American division to arrive in the UK, spending nearly two years living and training in the southwest of England.  Through photographs, artifacts and letters, we will explore the “friendly invasion” from the American perspective. Presenters  Dana C. Del Bianco and James J. “Jim” Stratton will lead us through what should be a very memorable jaunt through history!
