THE BEARDSLEE AT THE MANASSAS MUSEUM
The Beardslee Dial Telegraph has returned from it's very successful display at the
Manassas Museum System. Our thanks to
Roxanna for her kind help and assistance. The OVCWA donated a Signal Corps canteen and Marine Glasses to the museum to add to the
George Round artifact and telescope exhibit. The OVCWA has also donated signal items to include additional Signal Corps canteens to the
Stones River and Kennesaw Mountain museums. Donations of Signal Corps artifacts and documents including the
Albert Myer signed manual of signals that was presented to General Philip Sheridan who also autographed the manual
and a Signal Canteen continue to be made to
the Signal Corps Museum located at Fort Gordon, Georgia. These donations are a grateful thank-you to those institutions for their support
of the OVCWA Signal Corps and their most generous access to their extensive collections and documents.
