Arlingtons’s Center for Local History at Central Library just opened a new display about Arlington and World War II. It was a rapidly changing era, both here and abroad. According to the library:

The displays range from poignant letters home, combat boots, banners, music albums and “Victory” cookbooks to sometimes-grisly Horrors of War trading cards meant as social commentary, folk art and propaganda. The exhibition also includes a listening station of Arlington-at-war recollections culled from the Center’s hundreds of recorded oral histories.

The exhibit is open all of April. Click for more information.
