Announcement: Museum of the Ancient Roman Soldier created
#1
Avete, Fratres:

It is with great pleasure that I post here the following release, hot off the presses:

LOS ANGELES, CA – A noted author on Biblical history and private collector of ancient artifacts has joined forces with a Los Angeles-based nonprofit living history group to create a unique public exhibit, the Museum of the Ancient Roman Soldier (MARS), it was announced Saturday, July 12.

C. Foster Stanback of Irvine, CA, who has written several books on history and theology, has placed at the disposal of the Legion Six Historical Foundation his extensive personal collection of actual Roman military artifacts, including helmets, armor, weapons and camp tools, and has also made a substantial cash donation to the nonprofit group to fund the museum’s creation.
