Celebrate the heartwarming story of the WWII North Platte Canteen on Saturday-Sunday, Sept. 23-24 in North Platte.
The Canteen started during World War II with the arrival of troops in North Platte on a train on their way to the front. Women in North Platte brought snacks to the train station to give to them, but mistakenly had the wrong unit. They decided to continue the effort anyway, and it turned into one of history’s largest wartime volunteer efforts — the renowned North Platte Canteen met each and every troop train, 24/7, with food, gifts, appreciation and support.
