Welcome to The Dog Tag!

Welcome to The Dog Tag, a podcast by the St. Charles County Veterans Museum!

 

Our museum began with one man’s dream to honor veterans. Private Ralph Barrale, a World War II veteran who fought at the Battle of the Bulge and was among the first troops to enter the Dachau Concentration Camp. Ralph felt it was important to honor veterans of all wars and share their stories.

Ralph believed, “No one is ever really gone as long as their memories remain.” Our museum is unique in that it tells the stories of local men and women who served. We honor them by preserving and sharing their stories. This week, we’ll share the beginnings of the museum on our 3rd anniversary, along with major projects and plans for 2022.
