  It is off to a good start, clean and with a good staff and docents. Lots of pictures and nice exhibits, but we expected more hardware, like trucks and weapons carriers. Lunch was unimpressive, but tables and floor around them cleaned immediately when anyone left. All in all a pleasant visit.

  This museum is one of the best I've ever visited. Slightly difficult to get too, but once you're there it's amazing. There is so much to see, so it's best to spend the whole day here. They have exhibits about all the wars America has fought in and Soldiers in Society. They have an informational theater, action simulators, a Medal of Honor Garden, and a Veteran's hall. Also, everyone who works here is super nice and friendly. Their Cafe has a lot of options for food (all of which are delicious), as well as being really clean. I literally have nothing bad to say. I honestly think this place is better than some Smithsonians. It's amazing.

  This museum is so great. It is very enjoyable for the whole family. Interactive displays for every age. The video is a must see- it is just amazing. Really Shines on the greatness of the American Army. After viewing the free museum check out the virtual reality room for more fun. Café inside serves warm food and drinks. Highly recommend. Brand new beautiful facility

  Good museum. It’s much smaller than expected. The bulk of the exhibits are downstairs while the remaining two floors are paintings. You won’t really see anything you haven’t seen before in this museum. There’s only one very tiny exhibit on the third floor. The biggest downfall is the upstairs garden. If it’s sunny, you’re going to have an issue. The flooring is highly reflective and you can’t read anything on the placards they have because they’re made of metal and just reflect the sun. The kids interactive area is awesome. It explores math, science, and geography. While anyone younger than 6 or 7 might not be able to play the games its still a good place to explore for kids. I do see potential in this place as it grows. It’s a large building and as they add onto it, it will only get better. Those that work there seem to love their job. Gift shop is well stocked with a variety of items.
  It’s a good visit. No need to over plan for it. Ample parking. But don’t plan to spend a super long time there.

  Amazing. Could not have been better. Great and accurate displays of history and authentic items. Much more to come. As a Army veteran myself, I was so proud. The staff is very helpful and courteous. In the welcome area Scott and all are great. The volunteer staff is knowledgeable, gracious, and caring with their time. Thank you US Army historians.
