The Senate on Wednesday evening unanimously passed a resolution introduced by Senators Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) commemorating the anniversary of the Wright Museum of World War II History in Wolfeboro. The museum, which is nationally recognized for its extensive collection of World War II-era items and memorabilia, celebrated the 20th anniversary of its opening on July 16.

"For over two decades, the Wright Museum has dedicated itself to preserving a significant period in our nation's history and sharing the story of America's Greatest Generation, and we're pleased the Senate has officially recognized the museum's contributions," said Senators Ayotte and Shaheen. "New Hampshire is fortunate to be home to this unique educational institution, and we know that the Wright Museum will continue to educate and inspire visitors from across the country and around the globe for generations to come."

The Wright Museum was founded by David Wright and opened in 1994. It is the only museum in the United States that exclusively focuses on the contributions and legacy of World War II-era Americans.
