A new World War II exhibition debuted at the Oceano Train Depot at the end of May, in honor of Memorial Day. The exhibit features a unique grouping of rare WWII military figures wearing authentic uniforms from the era, along with posters, memorabilia, equipment, and other items. The showcase is scheduled to remain on display through the beginning of July.
The items featured in the exhibit came from the personal collection of Oceano resident and historian Mark Weedon, who acquired the artifacts over several years. To find out more about the exhibit, call (805) 489-5446 or email hguiton@aol.com. The Oceano Train Depot is open every Sunday from 1 to 3 p.m. and is located at 1650 Front St., Oceano.
