Reflection
What thoughts or feelings did your visit today inspire?
“I loved it. The tour was very informative and well presented. I think every American should visit this museum, especially the younger generation. Thank you for everything you are doing to preserve our history.” - AT1 (AW/SW) John P. G.
Honor
Who would you like to honor today, and why?
“I want to honor my father who fought in Vietnam. Throughout my childhood I could not understand why he didn’t tell us about it— Why wasn’t he “proud”? As an adult & after seeing this— I understand. He is & always will be a hero!” - An Idaho Veteran’s Daughter
Patriotism
What does Patriotism mean to you?
Loving your country and serving you country in any capacity. Thank you so much for this beautiful museum. We brought our 7 & 8 year olds here and it prompted conversation on freedom, service, and loyalty. God bless the USA. - Serafina M.
