It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society. In honor of Veteran’s Day tomorrow, we salute the rapidly diminishing group of World War II veterans. The old Whitewater Armory was completed in 1942, during World War II and it was the logical site for the World War II “Honor Roll,” the list of names of people of the Whitewater area who were serving in the war. This post card, probably taken between 1942 and 1945 shows this large sign, clearly showing that most young men (and probably some women) in the area were serving.

We thank all veterans for their service, in war and in peacetime.

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society.
