Wenham Museum salutes the United States Armed Forces at the annual World War II Living History Day. Members of the WWII Committee of the Living History Association will be on the museum's front lawn where uniformed veterans and re-enactors will be available to answer questions and share memorabilia.

Explore inside real WWII army vehicles including a M35 Deuce & a half, an DUKW (duck) amphibious truck, a vintage Jeep and ambulance. Enjoy informal performances of WWII songs from 10am-12pm and hear the story of The Candy Bomber, the true story of a bomber pilot who dropped hanky-parachutes filled with candy from his plane into West Berlin for the children to share after WW2 had ended and the Russians had blockaded the food supply West German civilians.
