AVIATION MUSEUM-FREE COMMUNITY EVENT
Opening of the Longest Yarn Traveling D-Day Exhibit

he Longest Yarn will be The Pride of Cape May County, offering visitors a unique blend of art and history. If you are interested in volunteering, please join us in bringing this incredible exhibit to life. Individuals interested in volunteering should send their name, contact information, and availability to volunteerstlycmc@gmail.com.

The Longest Yarn is inspired by the 80th anniversary of D-Day, and was unveiled in Carentan, France, in the Normandy region on June 6, 2024. The Longest Yarn will make its national debut at the Naval Air Station Wildwood (NASW) Aviation Museum and continue to be displayed from April to Labor Day 2025.

The Longest Yarn is a three-dimensional wool tapestry knitted and crocheted by hundreds of volunteers from around the world. Created with the guidance of historians retained by the project to ensure historical accuracy, the creator has carefully chosen each scene to depict the events of D-Day. The tapestry is unique in its design and meticulously executed. Measuring 80 meters (265 feet) in length, it symbolizes both the 80+ years since D-Day and the 80 days it took the Allies to liberate Paris. The Longest Yarn tells the pivotal story of June 6, 1944, from the buildup and launch in England to the Normandy invasion.

The Longest Yarn will become a national treasure as it travels from the (NASW) Aviation Museum to the Chapel of Four Chaplains in Philadelphia, then on to the Women’s Auxiliary in Washington, DC, at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and to Fort Mills, Kentucky, for the 101st Airborne Division.

Museum Hours 10:00 AM – 4 PM Daily

Volunteers are needed to assist staff with the Longest Yarn Exhibition at the NAS Wildwood Aviation Museum (NASW).

Free Opening Day on Monday, April 14, 2025

Stephen C. Ludlam Post 331

Since being chartered in 1946, Stephen C. Ludlam Post 331 of The American Legion has been welcoming veterans from all branches of our Armed Forces.

The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is the nation’s largest wartime veterans service organization, committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow service members and veterans.

The American Legion is a nonpartisan, not-for-profit organization with great political influence perpetuated by its grass-roots involvement in the legislation process from local districts to Capitol Hill. Legionnaires’ sense of obligation to community, state and nation drives an honest advocacy for veterans in Washington. The Legion stands behind the issues most important to the nation’s veterans community, backed by resolutions passed by volunteer leadership.
