Chasing what was considered “Manifest Destiny”, the United States declared war on Mexico in 1846. The call for volunteers was answered by the Palmetto Regiment from South Carolina. After two years of long marches, disease and battles interspersed with long periods of boredom, the Palmetto Regiment returned home, reduced in numbers but welcomed as heroes. The exhibit is on loan from South Carolina State Museum.

Exhibit is available to view Tuesday - Saturday from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm.
