SUMMARY:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum features a Special Exhibit on the Philippines Campaign
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit on the Philippines campaign. This exhibit will open on Tuesday\, September 2 and be on display until Saturday\, October 4.  The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm ET. There is no charge for admission\, but donations are gladly accepted. \n  \nVisitors are invited to learn about the Japanese assault on the Philippines including the Bataan Death March\, a brutal forced march of Allied prisoners of war through tropical heat\, humidity\, and rain. Thousands died along the way due to being starved and beaten and being denied medical care. \n  \nThe exhibit also explores the long campaign to liberate the islands\, starting with the U. S. landing at Leyte on October 20\, 1944. In an effort to hold Leyte at all costs\, Japan sent five naval forces to challenge the American fleet\, leading to the largest and most complex naval battle of World War II\, the massive Leyte Gulf Naval Campaign. \n  \nThe 38th Infantry Division\, which trained at Camp Gordon Johnston\, earned the nickname “Avengers of Bataan”. This division played a critical role in this campaign. In December 1944\, they landed at Leyte under enemy fire with the battle still raging. In the spring of 1945\, they fought a tough campaign at Zig Zag Pass in Luzon. After intense combat\, the division had cleared Bataan and accepted the formal surrender of two of the most powerful Japanese army groups in the Philippines. General Douglas MacArthur is said to have personally honored them with the title “Avengers of Bataan” for their victory. \n  \nCamp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located in Carrabelle\, directly across from Carrabelle Public Beach Park at 1873 Hwy 98 West. For more information\, contact the museum at (850) 697-8575 or museum@campgordonjohnston.com. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council. \n

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit: Stories in Glass - A Vintage Bottle Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Carrabelle History Museum is pleased to announce a special display featuring vintage bottles of the Forgotten Coast. This exhibit will be on display from Wednesday\, October 1 through Sunday\, December 28. This unique exhibit will showcase a wide variety of interesting and historical bottles that tell the story of Franklin County’s heritage\, industry\, and everyday life. Visitors can explore this special exhibit on Wednesdays from 12 to 5 pm ET\, Thursdays through Saturdays from 10 am to 5 pm ET\, and Sundays from 12 to 5 pm ET. Admission is free\, with donations warmly welcomed. \n  \nThe display will feature Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery bottle\, found on nearby St. Vincent Island\, once part of the estate of Dr. Raymond V. Pierce\, a physician and patent medicine maker. His products\, such as Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription\, Golden Medical Discovery\, and Pleasant Pellets\, made him a millionaire\, with nearly a million bottles shipped each year. He also founded the Pierce Glass Company\, which produced bottles for his own medicines and brands like Pond’s Extract and Lydia Pinkham. In 1907\, he purchased St. Vincent Island in Franklin County\, where he built a private preserve with roads\, cottages\, and imported game animals\, until his death on the island in 1914. \n  \nOther highlights of the exhibit include Coca-Cola bottles bottled locally in Apalachicola. The Apalachicola Coca-Cola Bottling Plant\, in operation through the late 1970s\, is remembered for its classic green glass bottles embossed with “Apalachicola\, FLA” on the bottom. Today\, these bottles are sought-after collectibles. \n  \nAlso on display are bottles from the shipwrecked SS Tarpon\, including cherry bottles and beer bottles. Visitors will also see medicine bottles once used by local midwife Tillie Miller\, local milk bottles\, as well as perfume bottles\, and other rare glass finds. All of which provide a glimpse into past daily life in Franklin County. \n  \nThe Carrabelle History Museum is located at 106 SE Avenue B\, in historic downtown Carrabelle\, FL.
