The national traveling exhibit on World War I sponsored by the World War I Museum and Liberty Memorial in Kansas City, Missouri and the Waddell and Reed Company made its one day stop in Hartford on 20 April 2012 at the Old State House. Members of the Order visited the display which was housed in a large trailer. In addition there were some local World War I and World War II vehicles on display and the Old State House Museum had an exhibit hall displaying artifacts relating to Connecticut's participation in The Great War.
