Storm, Signal, and Service: The Military and the 1900 Galveston Hurricane Tour
Join us for a compelling evening of history, weather, and wartime service as we explore the critical role of the military and the Weather Bureau during and after the 1900 Galveston Storm. This special event takes an in-depth look at Galveston as a military installation during one of the most catastrophic natural disasters in U.S. history.
The evening includes a guided tour of the historic WWII vessels, the USS Stewart and USS Cavalla, with a discussion of their role in modern military history and how military forecasting and communication evolved over time. This is a unique opportunity to walk the decks of history while connecting Galveston's stormy past to the long legacy of service and survival.
