Hitler's Mustache Trainer
This had to be hands down one of my favorite pieces in the museum. I'm not exactly sure what to say about this so I'll leave it up to you.
Russian Campaign
Poster's were made in a cartoonish style so it would be easier for people who were illiterate to understand what was going on at the time.
Hiroshima & Nagasaki
Mao Tse-tung Christmas Dinner
The Americans would give gifts to the Chinese, they would be things they weren't able to receive themselves. The Chinese found a tree outside and put lights on it and they sang songs of working men while the Americans sang Christmas carols.
Camouflage Dress
This was one of my favorite pieces in the museums. Because of the shortage in material people had to find another way to make clothes. One of the ways was using the camouflage parachutes that were left on the ground.
Helene Klein's Doll
This was one of the many relics from the concentration camps. It shows us how the people still tried to live an almost normal life. It's been sewed back together by some of the cloth they wore in the concentration camps.
Flag of Henri Simon
This is part of the French Resistance to Nazi Rule. It is the Flag of Henri Simon. It was given to a man named Charles de Gaulle by Reseau Froment, a communist group in France. He didn't accept it because they didn't support the Resistance until Germany invaded Russia.
