An update on the Allamakee County Veterans Museum


Remodeling of the former Vets Club Building will be completed this summer for use as a Veterans Museum. Designing and setting up of displays and exhibits will follow as time and resources permit.

Help is needed in preserving the memories and stories of Allamakee County’s military veterans from all conflicts and service. One special project is to collect photos of all county service members who died in the line of duty for use in a Roll of Honor display.

If you have any photos, stories, letters, documents, posters, maps, uniforms, equipment, or memorabilia to share or donate, please contact:

Jim Garrett at 563-568-7606
John Bauercamper at 563-568-7526, or johnbauercamper@gmail.com,
Allamakee Historical Society at P.0. Box 95, Waukon, IA 52172

Photos, letters, and documents can be copied and stored as digital images and the originals returned to donors if desired.

Volunteers to help with this and other projects would be greatly appreciated.
