My family visited the Bedford Boys Tribute Center after the D-Day Memorial on a recent visit to the area. What a wealth of knowledge the founders and curators are ! We learned so much about the brave men and boys who sacrificed so much for our country. We were touched by the fact that they moved to Bedford in order to tell the story because it needed to be told. The families have brought memorabilia from their loved ones so that we all can learn about them and their lives. A must see if in the area, and a perfect companion to the D-Day Memorial.

This was a very informative experience! Told of the sad stories of these young men who came from a typical small town at the start of WWII. These young men came from and grew up from this small town, went to the pharmacy/soda hangout together, which is the home for the tribute center. They went to school together, married their sweethearts, and left to defend this town and their country. Most never made it back home, alive. The ones that did come back, many were injured and had horrible memories of the war. Their families had saved their uniforms, letters to loved ones, a report card, musical instruments , pictures and a large amount of memorabilia from their lives.It was a guided tour that cost just $5 per person. Our guide was very knowledgeable, Gerry McCloskey. Unreal what all he knew, and did not read from notes, all in his head! A must to see while visiting the area!
