A CALL TO HELP RECOGNIZE THE SACRIFICES OF OUR NATIONS VETERANS:

THE MAINE MILITARY MUSEUM & LEARNING CENTER

The old engineering building located in Mill Creek Park in the City of South Portland is now the home of military artifacts and uniforms honoring Maine veterans from all wars and of peacetime service. The centerpiece will be the largest display of Vietnam POW items ever seen in the United States, comprised of actual POW uniforms and artifacts made in prison which were smuggled out at release, such as a small Christian Cross, a bamboo rosary, the Chinese lock & chain used to hold a prisoner in his cage, secret writing on toilet paper and cigarette wrappers, art work done after Homecoming and much, much more.

I currently have two major displays at the Smithsonian Museum, (American Museum of History and the Air & Space Museum) in Washington,  DC., one at the Richard M. Nixon Library in California, one at Naval Air Station Lakehurst, NJ, with a major upcoming exhibit on Ford Island in Pearl Harbor, as well as items at the Wright-Paterson AFB Museum.  

MAP's members are invited to participate in this great effort to honor our veterans. If you  have uniforms, patches, insignia, medals, war souvenirs, books, paperwork, truly anything military, which are currently gathering dust in attics and closets, please consider donating them to the museum. Here in this museum your artifacts will be displayed with your name and thus your service will be forever honored.  

The items being requested are not limited to Maine veterans only, but to anyone who served this nation, making this a special place for future generations to learn your story and that of your families, not Hollywood’s version.

Monetary donations are also gratefully accepted and are 501 (3)(c) tax deductible. Donations should be made out to:

 MAINE MILITARY MUSEUM AND LEARNING CENTER

“I was that which others did not want to be. I went where others feared to go, and did what others failed to do. I asked nothing from those who gave nothing, and reluctantly accepted the fact of eternal loneliness should I fall. I have seen the face of terror and felt the stinging cold of fear. I have loved, cried, suffered, and hoped, but most of all, I have lived times others would say were “best forgotten”. At least some day I will be able to say that I was proud of what I was - A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER!” (Source; Unknown Author)
