Webb Military Museum
Savannah, Indiana
Description

Located in Historic Downtown Savannah, Webb Military Museum features military artifacts from the American Civil War to Desert Storm. Original uniforms, headgear, and equipment are displayed in a walk-through setting. The museum honors our servicemen from all wars and branches. Many of the displays contain named groupings of servicemen highlighting their stories of service. A visit to Webb Military Museum will certainly bring back one's love of history and the realization of how much we owe to our men and women in uniform.

Mission

This museum is all about military history on a personal level and is a collection of military artifacts that I started collecting over 40 years ago. We own many items but the select items we feature in this museum are ones with a story to tell. When our visitors leave the museum, it is our hope that they will have a new found attachment to the individuals who wore the uniforms, hats and medals.

History
About the Owner, Gary Webb

Webb Military Museum is dedicated to the two people who inspired me to love history, my parents, James and Doreen Webb. My Father was a career Air Force Officer who was born and raised in North Georgia. Growing up with by brother and two sisters, we traveled all over the United States and Europe. It was a wonderful experience that most people do not get. Although my Father was a veteran of WWII and Vietnam, it was my Mother’s life that got me interested in history. She was born in downtown London, England in 1927. She was 13 when WWII started. While we were growing up my Mother had no problem telling her war time stories and experiences to us. I thought everyone’s Mother lived in a bomb shelter and carried a gas mask to school until I was 11 years old. It was at that time I realized my Mother had a special childhood, as horrible as it was.

What started off as a hobby collecting small items and searching for military relics in the woods of Germany turned into a lifelong interest that has now turned into Webb Military Museum.

Collecting these artifacts, I feel as if I have become the curator of those servicemen’s personal items. I want to honor their service and share with the Savannah community the love of history that I have.
