Dick,
Is that the one that was torn down to make room for the 75th anniversary commemoration?

  Another example if you'll indulge me: the floor joists pierced by 
  artillery during the battle.  They're one of those potent artifacts from 
  the collection which, when I toured the unfinished exhibits with the 
  GCWRT, I was happy to see were going into the museum.  However, today I 
  saw that they lack ANY interpretive signage.  What's worse?  Neither I, 
  nor any of the friends I ran into during the day, could remember what 
  house they were from.  Can anyone refresh my memory?  This has been 
  bugging me since this morning...

  Esteemed GDG member Rudy,

  Floor joists are from the John Forney farm house.

  YOS, Dick Crafton
