Event Description

The greatest generation will be remembered and honored as living historians from Iowa and surrounding states come together to display uniforms, artifacts and vehicles from the Second World War (1939-1945.)  The 9th Annual WWII Remembered event will feature uniform presentations and weapon demonstrations on both Saturday and Sunday.  Previous year’s events at the farm had reenactors representing the United States, Great Britain, USSR, Poland and Germany with vehicles from the United States and Germany.

The event is free to the public, however donations are encouraged.  Half of all donations go to the Eastern Iowa Honor Flight with the other half for the continued flood and derecho recovery of the farm.

This year we will have back displays by Vietnam War reenactors.  2023 is the 50th Anniversary of the withdrawal of combat troops from Vietnam.
