Our Military Veteran Tribute Exhibit proudly welcomes another local hero: Sergeant First Class William Francis “Pops” Daniels (Ret.). On display thru Sat,. Nov 30.

Born and raised in Carrabelle, “Pops” Daniels graduated from Carrabelle High School in 1957, where he was voted Mr. C.H.S., and other superlatives. After graduation, he joined the Army and dedicated 20 years to service, including two tours in Vietnam. He served as a Platoon Sergeant in the 3rd Infantry Regiment, “The Old Guard”—the Army’s oldest active-duty regiment, renowned for its solemn duty at Arlington National Cemetery’s Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. He also served in the Army Signal Corps, as a Light Weapons Infantryman, and as a Drill Sergeant.

Daniels’ distinguished service is marked by a range of honors, including a Bronze Star Medal for his exemplary service during his second tour in Vietnam (1971-72), an Air Medal, Army Commendation Medal, and a Combat Infantryman Badge.

Join us in honoring the service of veterans like “Pops” Daniels and other local heroes who served. Admission is free; donations appreciated. Funded by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.
