This U.S. military helmet shell — found by U.S. Marine Larry Klinefelter in 1965 in a ditch outside Da Nang, Vietnam — is among the artifacts featured in a new Vietnam veterans history exhibit that opens with a free public reception at 10 a.m. on Armed Forces Day, Saturday, May 18, at the Museum & Arts Center’s Exhibit Center, 175 W. Cedar St. in Sequim. The exhibit includes military items and photographs loaned by Vietnam veterans, a Quilt of Valor by the Friendship Quilters and a new Olympic Peninsula Doll Club display of military dolls.
