While Sunday and Monday of Memorial Day Weekend 2021 were a little rainy, perfect weather was had on Saturday. That one beautiful weather day also happened to be the day we cut the ribbon for our brand new museum exhibits.

Holidays at posts like Fort Larned were a very welcomed break from the monotonous life and tasks that the enlisted men experienced. While you would find a good many men celebrating the day, you might also find others catching up on some chores or work that had been pushed off. Another break from the monotony would be a sensational event, such as a prairie wolf appearing on the post!
