Breanne could use some help in her research of World War II veterans. If you know of any who were Living in Chase at the time of their enlistment or were a member of any of the local Bands at the time of their enlistment, please comment below or contact the Museum!

Breanne is already in contact with the Chase Legion (Dan McLean) and Georgia Jules (Indigenous veterans) and we three are sharing information already.
