“America’s Freedom Bell” rings in new home at The Veterans Museum

SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – America’s Freedom Bell to be officially unveiled at the Veterans Museum at Balboa Park.

This celebratory occasion is in honor of the first public home of “America’s Freedom Bell” since the bell was cast on June 6, 2013, to “Honor Our Armed Forces Past, Present and Future.”

Created to allow every American the opportunity to ring the bell to honor those who have served our nation, it has since travelled widely to Independence Hall, Arlington Cemetery, Pearl Harbor, Normandy Beach, and many other sites on national holidays and historically significant dates, but San Diego will be its first permanent home, according to organizers.

The event will be at the Veterans Museum on Wednesday, May 8, 2019 at 10:00 a.m.
