Old Abe feather among Wisconsin history to be interred in America’s Time Capsule

Wisconsin's historic Old Abe, a Civil War eagle used by the 6th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry, will be preserved in America's Time Capsule, a small, non-decaying container. This inclusion marks a significant step in honoring Wisconsin's rich history and ensuring its legacy endures for future generations. The Time Capsule aims to encapsulate pivotal moments across the U.S., making this feather a symbolic link to the state's past, particularly its contributions during the Civil War. This initiative highlights the importance of preserving national heritage through tangible artifacts.
