The Canteen welcomed GI’s about to head off to war, giving them one last chance to forget their anxieties with entertainment, fellowship, and a little American Spirit. Today, the WWII Museum honors this memorable wartime tradition at the BB’s Stage Door Canteen.  We will enjoy luncheon and exciting entertainment here.  We will spend the remainder of the afternoon exploring the museum. From the beaches of Normandy to the sands of Iwo Jima, the exhibits here are a blend of personal accounts, artifacts, documents, photographs, and original film footage.  The stories of the dozens of amphibious landings and the thousands of men and women who made the Allied victory in World War II possible are told through three floors of exhibit space. Tonight, you are in for a special treat as we board a Mississippi Riverboat for a lovely dinner cruise. Enjoy the delightful music & delicious food of New Orleans.  B, L, D
