Bible given to military in WWII
During World War II, thousands of servicemen carried Bibles into battle as both spiritual comfort and practical companion. This hardbound Bible, donated by Don Sikkema, represents the deep faith that sustained American soldiers through one of history's darkest chapters, a tangible reminder of home, hope, and the values Stuart's families sent overseas with their sons and daughters.
On display, main floor, Military section.
