RS 1005 - Legislative intent
The legislature hereby recognizes that it is appropriate to establish a naval museum on the Mississippi River at Kenner and that including a naval vessel of historic significance as part of such museum will be a significant factor in its effectiveness. The legislature finds that such a museum would be an excellent educational and historical facility for Louisianians, especially school children, and would also be a distinctive attraction to visitors to Louisiana and that the location of such a facility at Kenner would complement and be complemented by the many museums and other visitor attractions located there. The legislature recognizes that the museum would also pay fitting tribute to those citizens of Louisiana who participated in the naval engagements of our past wars.
