The Wyoming Veterans' Memorial Museum is a non-typical military venue that is exclusively focused on the personal, intimate, and sensitive stories of the individuals who have participated in the military, military conflict and ancillary military services. This institution is not a warehouse for racks of weaponry and piles of gear. The museum is not micro-focused on an individual service, branch, or conflict. It does have a collection of material from the original Air Base, but it is not the keynote exhibit. The veterans are showcased and rotated often. Our displays with their stories evoke powerful emotions. The museum is a memorial for all those who have served this country.
The museum has operated in an institutional vacuum.
