National Military Vehicle Museum
 

Last weekend Memorial Day I drove down to the National Military Museum in Dubois Wy. It was spectacular, mind blowing! Filled with mostly American AFV's and trucks from WW1 thru Vietnam also a few post Vietnam vehicles. You start out going through a very well stocked firearm wing with every common military small arms you can think of then into the WW1 wing and so forth. Like I said mostly American but German, Japanese and British vehicles are there and dozens of artillery pieces. $15 to get in and Vets for free, I felt guilty not paying more. Anyway If anyone is up for a roadtrip it is so well worth it, I spent 7hrs there one day and easily could have spent another whole day there. over 90% of the vehicles are in running condition and the attention to detail in the restorations is second to none.

Oh by the way there are Lugers there

Thanks for the great photos! Er did I miss em? What is Dubois close to?

This museum has a huge website..not hard to find. Worth a look.

Jerry I didn’t post pictures because I figured the website for the museum would be better and easier. Dubois is probably an 8hr drive from your neck of the woods in CO. You should check it out if you have a free weekend. Also a beautiful part of WY.

Jeb, Yes..I pretty quickly brought up the website! Lots of pictures there. Might just do that...

It's across the pond in Alsace Loraine France in La Wantzenau, the "MM Park" museum is a similar military vehicle museum with a very comprehensive collection and excellent displays.

Another great Military Vehicle Museum over there is the Technik Museum Sinsheim, Germany, just an hour south of Frankfurt I believe. They have a focus on vehicles of all kinds, but one part is all military vehicles like tanks, half tracks and such. I haven't been there since the 1980's, but I see it is still open. Recommend for anyone visiting Germany.
