It was an excellent place to spend hours and hours at. You need to set a good 4 hour block aside and that may not be enough. Non military personnel would even enjoy all the history. I would give it 5 stars.

Very impressive! Lots of education, and very nicely created exhibits. Wonderful memorials and an overwhelming amount of pride and patriotism everywhere you turn. Absolutely recommend going there!

As a prior service Infantry soldier, I appreciate the National Infantry Museum and the vast array of displays. A walk through the museum allows visitors to glimpse the life of an Infantry soldier. Starting at The Revolutionary War and spanning WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam and the more recent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Plan on spending several hours. Take a break for a great meal in the restaurant or catch a movie at the Giant Screen Theater. I especially liked the tour of the Harmony Church barracks, orderly room and chapel. My Basic Training was at Harmony Church, which exists now only as a museum display.

We visited the U.S. Infantry Museum when we visited our oldest Son for Basic Training-Family Day at Fort Benning, GA. It is a wonderful Museum that has so much to take in and learn. It will take several hours to see all of the exhibits. We could only see about half of the museum on this trip but we will finish when we return in 4 weeks to see our Son Graduate Basic and earn hi Blue Cord. It' difficult to see the life-size battle re-creations and not feel a swell of pride and sadness for those who have given all for our Freedom. I have always been proud to be an American, but having a Son who is an Infantryman makes me prouder than I ever thought possible. May God Bless our Soldiers.
