This annual event was created to honor the service of veterans from WWII and beyond. Located in Carrabelle, Florida, the exhibits and artifacts preserve the heritage of the men who trained at this camp during WWII. Camp Gordon Johnston opened in 1942 for the purpose of training amphibious soldiers and their support groups. The camp trained a quarter of a million men and closed in June of 1946. Attendees will have the opportunity to get up close and personal with tours of WWII Army vehicles and exhibit displays of the historic WWII camp once located just east of Carrabelle.
