📜 On This Day in History

On May 11, 1942, Franklin D. Roosevelt authorized the creation of the Air Medal through Executive Order 9158.

The Air Medal was established to recognize those who distinguished themselves by meritorious achievement while participating in aerial flight. It honored service members across the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard whose skill, courage, and dedication took them into the skies during a pivotal time in history.

Moments like this reflect how acts of service are recognized, not just for the mission, but for the commitment and courage behind it.

💜 Military Spouse Appreciation Day

Today we recognize the strength, resilience, and dedication of military spouses.

Military spouses serve in ways that often go unseen; through constant change, long separations, and the everyday challenges that come with supporting a life of service. They are the steady foundation behind those who wear the uniform.

At Oregon Military Museum Project, we honor not only those who serve, but the families who stand beside them.

To all military spouses: Thank you for your sacrifice, your support, and your strength!

🇺🇸 Military Appreciation Month & Military Caregiver Month

May is Military Appreciation Month; a time to honor and recognize the contributions, sacrifices, and service of members of the armed forces, past and present.

It is also Month of the Military Caregiver, recognizing the family members, loved ones, and caregivers who provide ongoing support to those who have served.

Service is not carried by one person alone. Behind every service member is a network of support: families, caregivers, and communities who share in the journey.

At Oregon Military Museum Project, we are committed to preserving and sharing these stories; because honoring service means recognizing everyone who plays a part in it.
