War is not just a compilation of dates that represent a series of battles. Kentucky Military Treasures, an online exhibition that illustrates the personal stories of bravery, innovation, heartache and perseverance, provides evidence of the people and artifacts history books often neglect. The exhibition features a diverse selection of artifacts, documents and photographs from the rich military collections of the Kentucky Historical Society.

We also encourage you to visit Kentucky Military Treasures, on exhibition at the Thomas D. Clark Center for Kentucky History in historic downtown Frankfort, opening November 11, 2009.
