The History Center exhibit on the Greatest Generation included artifacts from WWII as well as the cultural/social posts I showed you before. Bringing home souvenirs from combat is a common practice during warfare, and one soldier brought back this German armband, which ultimately ended up in the History Center's collection. The small photo is a piece of equipment from WWII also.TODAY IN MINNESOTA: 1940-Minneapolis holds its first Aquatennial, a festival celebrating Minnesota's summers. (MN.
