The Veterans Museum is a virtual museum that was created to preserve the legacy of United States Veterans and their families, as well as provide helpful resources for them.
News articles and information about happenings with our Veteran interviews, kiosks, events we’ve attended, and more. Check back often to stay informed!
Your story is important. It’s time to preserve it for generations to come!
At the Veterans Museum, we believe that every veteran’s voice deserves to be heard. That’s why we offer a free interview service to record and archive your story. These interviews are conducted using best practices outlined by the Library of Congress Veterans History Project, and if you choose, we’ll even submit your interview to their official archive.
Sharing your story allows you to:
Reflect on and honor your service
Preserve a lasting record for your loved ones
Contribute to a growing archive of veteran experiences
Educate the public about military life from your perspective
Because of the financial support of our membership, we are able to provide this opportunity FREE to every veteran. For $25 per year, your membership can ensure that the Veterans Museum can deliver on its mission to collect and preserve individual stories of veterans, help enable them to share those stories as they wish, and recognize and serve our veterans in ways they have long earned but too often failed to enjoy.
They served; they deployed; they left their families behind; they risked their lives and limbs. We very respectfully ask for your $25 per year support to ensure that Veterans’ service is recognized, respected and honored, helping ensure that the public is better educated about the service of veterans to America. If possible, please consider donating more to provide this opportunity for years to come.
Inspired by the story of Major William J. Hicklin, Jr., a World War II veteran, and his wife Mignonette, our museum was born from the discovery of a war journal and four unseen D-Day photographs—hidden memories that sparked a mission. Founded by grateful descendants and supported by the local community, the Veterans Museum is dedicated to preserving and sharing veterans’ stories, honoring their service, and educating future generations. Join us as we pay tribute to our heroes and keep their stories alive.
We have compiled an ever-growing library of resources that help facilitate initial communications between veterans wanting or needing access to veteran-related social, medical, and mental health support organizations and/or other veteran-related benefits.
