Wayne County's Close Call With Nuclear Disaster-- Part 1

From a Wayne County Museum, Goldsboro, NC, pamphlet.

Not only does the building date from World War II, when it served as a USO Club for servicemen, especially from Seymour Johnson Air Base, but it has a great collection for a county museum (including a scale model of the Civil War Battle of Goldsboro Bridge) and always an interesting series of cultural events.

We saw the presentation on the Tuscarora Indians on my first Sunday in town (and written about in this blog), but also other presentations of interest.

One took place March 9th "Wayne County's Close Call With Nuclear Disaster."  Now, if that doesn't draw your attention, I don't know what will.
