Announcing the 2022 Mini-Reunion!!!
The National Museum of Military Vehicles
Dubois, Wyoming
September 17 – 20, 2022
Website: https://www.nmmv.org/
On Saturday, September 17, 2022, we will all drive … or fly into the airport in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and stay our first evening at a hotel there. Please note: We will be announcing the hotel contact information soon. Then the next day (Sunday, September 18) we will take chartered buses to Dubois (a 125 mile drive). We will plan a full day at the museum including driving tanks and then we will bus back to Jackson Hole that evening. We will have one “chill” day for getting together at a Torsion Bar hospitality room on Monday, September 19 and return to our homes on Tuesday, September 20.
Dan Starks, the president and CEO writes: “The new firearms museum itself has lots of good stuff. Our best artifact is our Bunker Hill musket. It fired the first shot at Bunker Hill. A $500,000 acquisition symbolizing the citizen soldier, the Second Amendment, and the founding of the U.S.”
“By the end of summer 2021 we will have four galleries complete – the Unknown Soldiers Weapons Vault, the WWII Marshall Gallery, The Chesty Puller Gallery covering the Korean and Vietnam Wars and the Patton Gallery with rotating exhibits. I can’t think of anything more fun than arranging for your group to drive a number of tanks. All of this would be free of charge. You guys are what we live for.” As a side note: There are currently 432 vehicles on display and growing.
We changed the host city to Jackson Hole because it is a larger, more accommodating city and it is the gateway to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons National Park. You may want to drive from your home or rent a car so you are able to spend some time on your own visiting other sites in the state.
MORE DETAILS TO FOLLOW SOON.
