385th Bomb Group Memorial Museum, Perlé, Luxembourg
|
|
We are a small group and are running the museum in our free time. To keep it going, we set up an association dedicated to keep the memory alive. Our group actually consists of 8 people, age ranges from 20's to 60's. We are Air Force enthusiasts as well as Army interested people and collectors of related W.W.II stuff.
In 1997, plans were made for a couple of events to celebrate the anniversary of the local music band and the firefighters of Perlé. Plans for a monument dedicated to the 18 airmen came up. The Municipality of Rambrouch donated three rooms in the former school building to set up a small exhibition with parts of the two planes for the anniversary and monument dedication ceremonies to be held in 1998.
On 21st June 1998, veterans of the 385th Bombardment Group (H) attended the dedication of the monument in front of the church. With the great support of the US Army Forces in Europe, the events knew an outstanding success. |
