Effort launches

Indiana Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch on Monday announced the launch of Indiana Destination Development Corporation’s Military Monuments and Museums IN Indiana initiative.

The new state program is an effort to draw attention to Indiana’s military history. It includes the website visitindiana.com/military, which includes information about the state’s military history and various locations where it is showcased across the state.

"The Military Monuments and Museums IN Indiana initiative is a comprehensive program that encompasses war memorials, historical markers, museums and other distinctive locations that showcase the rich military history of the great state of Indiana," said Crouch in a press release. "This initiative is creating a network of information and immersive opportunities that unites all regions of Indiana.”

The site features an entry for Portland’s Museum of the Soldier.
