World War II battle re-enactments and a visit from Gen. George Patton’s grandson will highlight a Sept. 4 event in Catoosa County paying tribute to the nation’s military.

“Remembering Our Heroes” will be a day of living history and remembrance. While the battle re-enactments will be from the World War II era, vehicles, displays and living historians from all time periods are invited to the Barnhardt Circle polo field in Fort Oglethorpe.

“This is to celebrate our heritage,” said museum Executive Director Chris Mc-Keever. “It’s a military history timeline from the Revolutionary War forward. We wanted to uplift the patriotic spirit with this event.”
