uring World War II, Eldred was the site of a British and American
munitions plant that produced eight million bombs, mortar shells and
fuses. Fifteen hundred people worked there, 24 hours a day, from
January 1942 to May 1945, supporting the war effort.
The Eldred World War II Museum opened on Memorial Day, 1996,
dedicated to the memory of the U.S. fighting forces and the 40 million
people on the home front who provided our fighters with the war
materials they needed.
