Since his retirement in 1994\, Kermit has continued to promote appreciation for the state’s natural and cultural history through writing\, outdoor endeavors and storytelling. Kermit has published a few short stories and several articles including some on Florida history. In 2016\, a book containing 12 of his short stories\, My Life in North Florida\, was published. In 2020\, a second book\, Stories from North Florida\, was published. He continues to lecture on many subjects; but\, his favorite is Florida’s history. In his past\, he has raced hydroplanes\, bicycles\, and crewed on ocean racing sailing yachts. He was a certified scuba diver\, and a skilled aerobatics pilot. He competed in shooting target pistols and won many awards. Since 2011\, he has been competing in barebow recurve archery winning 16 gold medals\, including six state championships\, and a bronze medal from the 2015 National Senior Olympics. \nThese Speakers events are part of a well-established and popular series by the Apalachicola Area Historical Society with speakers January through May on Saturdays\, mid-month\, at 4pm in the Raney House Carriage House.

SUMMARY:Special Exhibit: Operation Husky\, the Invasion of Sicily
DESCRIPTION:Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit about Operation Husky\, the invasion of Sicily. This exhibit will be on display from Tuesday\, January 6\, 2026 until Saturday\, January 31\, 2026. The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm. There is no charge for admission\, but donations are gladly accepted. \nOperation Husky was the Allied invasion of Sicily in 1943\, devised in North Africa as the Allies drove German and Italian forces from the continent and prepared to advance into Italy. The campaign relied on a series of top-secret deceptions—fake units\, fabricated communications\, and the famed British Intelligence ploy known as Operation Mincemeat\, which persuaded Germany that Sicily was not the next target. It set in motion one of the largest combined operations of World War II\, involving nearly half a million Allied personnel. \nHighlights of this exhibit include a set of top-secret plans for the JOSS segment (3rd Infantry Division) amphibious landings near Licata\, Sicily\, along with details for CENT (Forty-fifth Division near Scoglitti\, Sicily) and DIME (1st Division near Gela\, Sicily)\, the other two American landing forces. This copy of the top-secret plans was printed just 20 days before the start of Operation Husky\, which involved amphibious landing of infantry and armor as well as parachute operations by the 82nd Airborne. It is also a secret as to why the museum holds this set of plans.
