Episode description

Have you ever visited a museum and wondered where all the artifacts come from? Well Heather studies collections of objects from WW2 (yes, like those you sometimes see at your favorite history museum) and where those objects originally came from. It can range from the usual battleground trophies to the truly bizarre... PS- sorry for the wonky sound recording, turns out recording in a new location threw everything off for me.... Suggested Reading: Organization that returns WW2 heirlooms to original families: obonsociety.org WW2 European theatre art & history preservation: monumentsmenfoundation.org Follow me: PhDrinking@gmail.com, @PhDrinking, @SadieWit, www.facebook.com/PhDrinking/ Follow Heather Scheurer: @hmcbee87 Thanks to www.bensound.com/ for the intro/outro Thanks to @TylerDamme for audio editing
