The Silent Wings Museum is inviting the public this weekend to join them as they commemorate the anniversary of D-Day and honor the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for our freedom on the beaches of Normandy 82 years ago.
Free Admission This Weekend
If you’re interested in the history of airborne troops and the foot soldiers who fought for America on D-Day or you’re just looking for a fun weekend idea for the family, then have I got the perfect option for you.
The Silent Wings Museum in Lubbock is opening their doors to a special event this weekend. On Saturday, June 6, and Sunday, June 7, guests are invited to attend for free and view the variety of features that Silent Wings will have on display, including vintage aircraft and vehicles, living history displays, and educational activities all day long.
The museum will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days, and did I mention that admission is free ?
