2018 Oatlands Plantation WWI & WWII Weekend
The Voices of Freedom participated in the 2018 WWI & WWII Weekend at Oatlands Plantation during the weekend of July 14-15. This was our 3rd year participating in the event at the historic site. Despite having no interviews scheduled, we were able to conduct four interviews with veterans and civilians from WWII, Korea and the Gulf War. When we weren’t conducting interviews, staff gave tours of the studio and promoted the mission of the museum. In addition to the mobile recording studio, the museum provided an M5A1 Stuart Light Tank for the event. As always, the tank was a huge hit.
