The Mississippi Armed
Forces Museum honors the servicemen and women of all branches from Mississippi
and others who received training in Mississippi during times of war. The
Museum's exhibits tell the personal stories of Mississippi heroes, and serves to
educate future generations about the price paid for our freedom.
As the official military
museum of Mississippi, the mission of the Mississippi Armed Forces Museum is to
collect, preserve, interpret, exhibit, and hold in public trust for the
exclusive benefit of the people, significant historical property related to the
history of the State of Mississippi and its contributions to the Armed Forces of
the United States from the early 19th Century to the present.
While there is no fee to
tour the museum, we rely on fundraising efforts to assist us in in honoring
those who served in the United States military. Through your support by
purchasing a memorial brick, we can bring new exhibitions to the Museum, provide
educational programs, continue the stewardship of our collections, and look
toward growing our museum while also leaving a lasting legacy for you or your
loved ones at our museum. Honoring those who served and preserving what they
left behind remains our top priority.
