SUMMARY:Special Addition to the Veterans Tribute Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Carrabelle History Museum is honored to announce a special additional display for its Veteran Tribute Exhibit in recognition of Veterans Day. The Veteran Tribute Exhibit  pays heartfelt tribute to several local men who bravely served in the armed forces from World War I through Vietnam. Deeply meaningful to the community\, this display has touched the hearts of local families and visitors alike. The special addition will be on display from Wednesday\, November 5 through Sunday\, November 30\, 2025.  \nThe exhibit continues to celebrate military veterans with strong ties to Carrabelle and Franklin County\, sharing their personal stories of courage\, service\, and sacrifice. In honor of Veterans Day\, this year’s special addition will be Aviation Radioman Petty Officer Second Class David Learoy Rickards. David Rickards was born on October 12\, 1921 in Carrabelle to Omer “O. E.” Rickards\, a fisherman\, and Della Rickards.  \nAt the age of 20\, David Learoy Rickards registered for military service in Franklin County. At the time he was working  for J.T. Millinor in Carrabelle\, FL. He served in the U.S. Navy during World War II as a radio operator aboard naval aircraft\, a critical part of the aircrew. \nOn May 30\, 1944\, Rickards died while in service to his country when the Naval aircraft that he was aboard tragically crashed near Chincoteague Naval Auxiliary Air Station in Virginia. The crash\, which happened while the crew were attempting an emergency landing\, took the lives of all eleven of the crew. There is a plaque at the Carrabelle Airport in memory of him and two others. His story reflects the deep local roots and ultimate sacrifice of so many Franklin County service members.  \nIn the Veterans Exhibit\, visitors will find a moving collection of artifacts offering a glimpse into their experiences both in uniform and at home. The museum extends a special thanks to the families of the honored veterans for sharing their stories and treasured items. Additionally\, the museum is grateful for the support of Lisa Keith-Lucas and Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum\, whose invaluable collaboration helped make the exhibit possible. The Carrabelle History Museum warmly invites the public to visit and celebrate the legacy of these local heroes. \nThe Carrabelle History Museum is open Wednesdays from 12–5 pm\, Thursdays through Saturdays 10 am–5 pm\, and Sundays 12–5 pm. Admission is free\, with donations gratefully accepted. The museum is located at 106 SE Avenue B\, Carrabelle\, FL.

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.

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. \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.

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit Honoring Native American Servicemembers
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is excited to announce a special exhibit honoring Native American Servicemen\, opening Tuesday\, November 4 and on display until Saturday\, November 29\, 2025. November is National Native American Heritage Month\, and the museum salutes their service and sacrifice. The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday\, 11 am to 5 pm ET with free admission. (Closed Thursday\, November 27 for Thanksgiving.) \n“During World War I and World War II\, hundreds of American Indians joined the United States armed forces and used words from their traditional tribal languages as weapons. The United States military asked them to develop secret battle communications based on their languages—and America’s enemies never deciphered the coded messages they sent. “Code Talkers\,” as they came to be known after World War II\, are twentieth-century American Indian warriors and heroes who significantly aided the victories of the United States and its allies. \nThe Code Talkers’ role in war required intelligence and bravery. They developed and memorized a special code. They endured some of the most dangerous battles and remained calm under fire. They served proudly\, with honor and distinction. Their actions proved critical in several important campaigns\, and they are credited with saving thousands of American and allies’ lives.” (Source: The National Museum of the American Indian). \nVisitors are invited to learn about the Native American Servicemembers\, including members of the Choctaw\, Navajo\, Cherokee\, Pima\, Comanche and other nations that served their country in World War II. Guests can discover the story of the Code Talkers\, who used their unbreakable code based on their native tongues to help defeat the enemy and the stories of the seven Native American Medal of Honor Recipients from WWII. \nCamp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located in Carrabelle\, directly across from Carrabelle Public Beach Park at 1873 Hwy 98 West. For more information\, visit CampGordonJohnston.com or contact (850) 697-8575 or museum@campgordonjohnston.com. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council. \n \n

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit: Stories in Glass - 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.

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.

SUMMARY:Special Addition to the Veterans Tribute Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Carrabelle History Museum is honored to announce a special additional display for its Veteran Tribute Exhibit in recognition of Veterans Day. The Veteran Tribute Exhibit  pays heartfelt tribute to several local men who bravely served in the armed forces from World War I through Vietnam. Deeply meaningful to the community\, this display has touched the hearts of local families and visitors alike. The special addition will be on display from Wednesday\, November 5 through Sunday\, November 30\, 2025.  \nThe exhibit continues to celebrate military veterans with strong ties to Carrabelle and Franklin County\, sharing their personal stories of courage\, service\, and sacrifice. In honor of Veterans Day\, this year’s special addition will be Aviation Radioman Petty Officer Second Class David Learoy Rickards. David Rickards was born on October 12\, 1921 in Carrabelle to Omer “O. E.” Rickards\, a fisherman\, and Della Rickards.  \nAt the age of 20\, David Learoy Rickards registered for military service in Franklin County. At the time he was working  for J.T. Millinor in Carrabelle\, FL. He served in the U.S. Navy during World War II as a radio operator aboard naval aircraft\, a critical part of the aircrew. \nOn May 30\, 1944\, Rickards died while in service to his country when the Naval aircraft that he was aboard tragically crashed near Chincoteague Naval Auxiliary Air Station in Virginia. The crash\, which happened while the crew were attempting an emergency landing\, took the lives of all eleven of the crew. There is a plaque at the Carrabelle Airport in memory of him and two others. His story reflects the deep local roots and ultimate sacrifice of so many Franklin County service members.  \nIn the Veterans Exhibit\, visitors will find a moving collection of artifacts offering a glimpse into their experiences both in uniform and at home. The museum extends a special thanks to the families of the honored veterans for sharing their stories and treasured items. Additionally\, the museum is grateful for the support of Lisa Keith-Lucas and Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum\, whose invaluable collaboration helped make the exhibit possible. The Carrabelle History Museum warmly invites the public to visit and celebrate the legacy of these local heroes. \nThe Carrabelle History Museum is open Wednesdays from 12–5 pm\, Thursdays through Saturdays 10 am–5 pm\, and Sundays 12–5 pm. Admission is free\, with donations gratefully accepted. The museum is located at 106 SE Avenue B\, Carrabelle\, FL.

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit Honoring Native American Servicemembers
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is excited to announce a special exhibit honoring Native American Servicemen\, opening Tuesday\, November 4 and on display until Saturday\, November 29\, 2025. November is National Native American Heritage Month\, and the museum salutes their service and sacrifice. The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday\, 11 am to 5 pm ET with free admission. (Closed Thursday\, November 27 for Thanksgiving.) \n“During World War I and World War II\, hundreds of American Indians joined the United States armed forces and used words from their traditional tribal languages as weapons. The United States military asked them to develop secret battle communications based on their languages—and America’s enemies never deciphered the coded messages they sent. “Code Talkers\,” as they came to be known after World War II\, are twentieth-century American Indian warriors and heroes who significantly aided the victories of the United States and its allies. \nThe Code Talkers’ role in war required intelligence and bravery. They developed and memorized a special code. They endured some of the most dangerous battles and remained calm under fire. They served proudly\, with honor and distinction. Their actions proved critical in several important campaigns\, and they are credited with saving thousands of American and allies’ lives.” (Source: The National Museum of the American Indian). \nVisitors are invited to learn about the Native American Servicemembers\, including members of the Choctaw\, Navajo\, Cherokee\, Pima\, Comanche and other nations that served their country in World War II. Guests can discover the story of the Code Talkers\, who used their unbreakable code based on their native tongues to help defeat the enemy and the stories of the seven Native American Medal of Honor Recipients from WWII. \nCamp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located in Carrabelle\, directly across from Carrabelle Public Beach Park at 1873 Hwy 98 West. For more information\, visit CampGordonJohnston.com or contact (850) 697-8575 or museum@campgordonjohnston.com. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council. \n \n

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit:  Operation Paperclip
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit about Operation Paperclip. This exhibit will open on Tuesday\, October 7 and be on display through Saturday\, November 1.  The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm. There is no charge for admission\, but donations are gladly accepted.   \nOperation Paperclip was the secret US campaign to move German scientists\, some of whom had Nazi records of wrongdoing\, to the US to help develop the rocket technology for defense and eventually space exploration. Keeping these human assets out of the hands of the Soviet Union as the Cold War ramped up required turning a blind eye to their pasts as operatives in the Nazi Regime. These scientists\, led by Werner Von Braun\, were key to the success of the US missions into space.  \nThis exhibit is a cooperative venture between the Museum and the Challenger Learning Center in Tallahassee. The Challenger Learning Center is the K-12 Outreach Facility for the Florida A&M University-Florida State University College of Engineering. Portions of this exhibit will be presented in November at the Challenger Learning Center located at 200 S. Duval Street in Tallahassee.  \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.
