special and unique present for yourself, or someone you love. For
only $175 you not only get a ride in our local area, but if you are

Museum memberships entitle you to free admission to the museum and

like on that fateful June 6th, 1944. A day when the freedom of a
world hung in the balance as she made her way in the pre-dawn
darkness towards the beaches of Normandy; part of the largest
aerial invasion armada the world has ever seen.
