The exhibition will be on display at the History Center located at 302 East Berry Street in downtown Fort Wayne, open Monday &#8211; Friday 10am-5pm and Saturday 12-5pm<\/p>\n<p>Indiana&#8217;s contributions during the First World War went far beyond the men and women who were drafted or volunteered for overseas duty. Tens of thousands left home for European battlefields, hospitals, and training camps, and several thousand never returned. The scale of the war and the vast amount of mobilized resources unavoidably drew Hoosiers statewide into the war effort with long-lasting effects.<\/p>\n<p>Indiana&#8217;s diverse residents experienced the Great War in distinct ways. While those of German heritage faced discrimination, African Americans and women pointed to their wartime contributions years later when advocating for social and political rights. As a result of war-time industry and the demand for steel, machinery, and equipment to power the Allied War effort, cities such as Indianapolis, South Bend, and Gary experienced economic booms that drew them even closer to the war.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibit explores the roots of World War I, America&#8217;s entrance into the war, Indiana&#8217;s participation in and contributions to the war effort, the evolution of warfare, the role of Hoosier women both at home and abroad, Germans in Indiana, efforts for lasting peace, the construction of the American Legion building and the Indiana War Memorial, and more. The exhibit will be supplemented with local artifacts, documents, and images from the History Center&#8217;s historical collection.<\/p>\n<p>The Great War: From Ration Lines to the Front Lines is made possible by Kroger.
