In 2000, when the U.S. Army Airborne and Special Operations Museum opened, our nation was introduced to the milestone makers and groundbreakers of our time.  Since then, the U.S. experienced 9/11 and 20-plus years of war and today we see Airborne and Special Operations Soldiers serving next to partner nations worldwide. As thousands of visitors enjoy the wide expanse of existing gallery space and exhibits, the U.S. Army Airborne & Special Operations Museum team is developing a state-of-the-art exhibit space plan to showcase more artifacts and events in military history.

HONORING AMERICA’S HEROES

Embracing the legacy of Airborne & Special Operations Soldiers who came before us and who now continue with a greater purpose.

Work has begun on the Phase One concept designs, which includes World War I and World War II. In the next few years, visitors will be inspired by a transformed 21st century gallery with new artifacts, new stories, immersive exhibits, and interactive technologies to enhance the visitors learning experience. In this reimagined gallery, visitors will interact with history, walking in the footsteps of our nation’s elite Airborne and Special Operations Soldiers, with the aid of diverse multimedia, like sound, lights, images, and sensory effects. Using augmented reality, guests will have an opportunity to experience, in a very personal way, the inspiring acts of valor and bravery exhibited by our Army’s Airborne and Special Operations Soldiers, from World War II through the ongoing Global War on Terrorism.

Such an extensive gallery renovation brings with it an exciting future for visitors of all ages. But we need your help. Upgrading exhibits, installing groundbreaking technology, and creating a much improved and expanded platform for learning are essential as we continue to educate Soldiers and the public about the U.S. Army’s storied, Airborne and Special Operations legacy.
