    EXCELLENT ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I had the privilege of visiting this awesome Museum. The Veterans Are so awesome, they are very knowledgeable of the information they provide. The environment is welcoming and there is so much to learn. The Veterans who volunteer there have their exhibits there that tell their story. I spared photos of the museum because you need to go if you want to see the hidden gems in this amazing place. Their is a wide range of war information from different divisions and it includes multi-colored versions of what war was and is to this day. Thank you for the hospitality I can’t wait to tell more people about this place. Please bring donations to keep this place going and to help our Veterans, because this museum is free.🪖🎖️💂‍♂️🚔🇺🇸

    Excellent memorial for vets, free, easy access, lots of individuals memorialized along with interesting Hollywood actors and their involvement in the wars. Lots of volunteer vets to have a conversation with and learn something about the wars and get a personalized perspective. Definitely worth a visit.

    Thank you for making my brothers day, and of course for your service. Jessie was helpful and informative. My brother loved being here and was able to get his very own dog tags!

    I liked it, and next time I am taking my son bc he will love it. Check you my photos below, but lots of planes and guns. There are videos including a video on World War II (12min)

    Great place with so much history. The people or volunteers here have so much information and are happy to talk and share. If you get a chance, watch the video in the big room in the back. Make sure you go right at the beginning. It's not just a video, it's an experience.

    Fantastic WPA era building with a great military museum. It's the largest military museum west of the Mississippi! Lots of special artifacts and knowledgeable docents. Open 362 days a year, 6 days a week and free. But please make a donation, as there is some serious restoration and upkeep needed. The building is on the National Historic Register.

    My family and I arrived at the museum around 2:20pm and were informed that they were closed even though their business hours are from 10am-3pm. Their excuse to my husband, who is an active duty military member, was that they close at a quarter til 3 due to not being able to see the whole museum even though we showed up well before that time.

    This was a really fun experience! The rooms were super pleasing to the eye and some rooms had different effects. There's about 6 aesthetically, beautiful rooms located in Beverly Hills mall next to Macy's! The staff were so sweet and helpful if you wanted group pictures. The tickets were decent priced if you bought the tickets there and used the 25% off check in with google! Overall it was a magically experience!

    A lot of history, good place to visit, remember old friends, get some knowledge and pass on to next generations what the price of freedom means/cost is in the sacrifice laid down by some of these vets

    I attended a special ceremony to honor Chinese-American Service in WW2. A perfect setting. The grounds express the numerous places and ways our Armed Forces have served. The displays are tremendous!
