AMEDD Museum Foundation
The AMEDD Museum is closed due to the COVID 19 outbreak but plenty is still happening inside!
While the AMEDD Museum is closed to the public due to COVID 19, the museum staff is still working to provide educational assistance to the Medical Center of Excellence (AMEDD Center and School) as needed. The Museum staff is also taking advantage of the slower pace to update and enhance various exhibits. Additionally, work continues on the new webpage being created for the Museum to better reach the public. The Foundation Gift Shop is not physically open but our Shop Manager, Ms Kling, is able to process orders and donations on line. When the Gift Shop re-opens to walk-in traffic we will let you know.  
Your Foundation Continues Efforts Virtually
While we are unable to man the Foundation Office in person, the Foundation Executive Committee continues to meet virtually via Zoom and is also able to conduct daily business via email. Our regularly scheduled quarterly Board of Directors meeting has been rescheduled from 1 May to 24 July. 
Update the Foundation email address in your Contacts List.
We've had some inquiries lately about our Foundation email address. It did change some time back so now is a good time to check your Contacts list to ensure you have the most current email address for your Foundation.  

The old address was:  amedd.foundation@att.net

The new address is:  amedd.foundation@ameddmuseum.org
The Museum recently opened a new exhibit highlighting a 1943 Harley Davidson SLA motorcycle that was used by the US Army in various roles in World War II. The exhibit’s setting is Caratan, France on 13 June, 1944 during the Battle of Bloody Gulch after the Allied invasion of Normandy. The exhibit displays the motorcycle as the transportation mode of a 2nd Armored Division Soldier in France. The injured rider is being treated by a combat medic of the 101st Division. The 2AD was in the reinforcing role to the 101st during the battle. The motorcycle was a generous donation from the Hixon family.
