Plaques commemorating Generals Bradley, Mark Clark, Eisenhower, Marshall and Patton mark meeting halls named in their honor. The building is now primarily used for meeting, wedding and social functions; however the building is open to the public on Monday-Friday 8-4 p.m. Admission is free. 337-463-7212
