Hi Everyone. I wanted to inform you all that we have finally moved or I should say moving, we are in the huge process of setting up the artifacts and displays in our new location. As soon as we are open to the public I will let you all know.
Also once we are open I have copies of the book No Retreating Foot Steps.
Thank you all for your patience as this is a huge undertaking ( One year almost to the date of the Armories being closed). See you all in the near future.
C.W.O Ray Coulson
