I loved this place! If anyone is interested in History, this place is a must-seen considered! The veterans, who own the museum, were gentle and talkative about historical topics referring the US military history and US-Albania relationship. Thank you for your time. Gary, a student majored in History in AUBG, from Albania!
Wonderful private museum full of good artifacts and many stories tied to those items. Owner is a passionate and knowledgeable guide who keeps the museum in excellent condition.
You walk into the first room which looks like a banquet hall with the military items displayed on the wall. Then you realize there are more rooms, especially the main display room with oodles and oodles of cool stuff.
The best experience is to hang with either Lee, the owner, or one of his friends as they will walk you around telling firsthand stories and stories of various exhibit donors. The collection of items is phenomenal, but being exposed to men with these stories makes this one of the best.
If you can, go on a Saturday and you may get lucky to meet one of few remaining WWII vets visiting. He lives nearby and comes often. And he has items on display.
Definitely the type of museum worth visiting multiple times.
We stayed via Harvest Hosts and they request $20 donation which we felt was more than worth it. It is an amazing museum for those with that interest and full of original memorabilia; quite a collection. Make sure to get the tour for the full experience and many stories; Lee is the best for tours. However, be prepared for an emotional experience as well. The horrors of war.
It is a lot more than modest!! Lee Humiston hit the ball out of the park. The displays are fantastic, his knowledge of the displays is right on and the whole experience was just great. Jim
