The museum is divided into three areas: the Tyler Craig Memorial Library; the Bob McAbee Exhibit Hall, and the Wendell Powers Auditorium to commemorate the untold hours of volunteer labor these three museum board members gave, and continue to give, to this building.

We have heard it commented by visitors who have seen military museum throughout the U.S. that the charm of this museum is that it celebrates the accomplishments and sacrifices of the local service person and their family on the home front, rather than extolling the oft-told glory of their commanders.

The Website is dedicated to Ken David and all the volunteers who have made this endeavor possible. We are staffed with volunteers. We welcome any assistance or donations.

Bill Legg and Sam Gibbons will be forever missed!

Would you like to honor the men and women who have served our country? Many ask "what they can do"? By helping to preserve their memories here in the Museum you can do more than honor those who served, you can help us teach our children and our neighbors of the price that is paid for our freedom.

We invite you to tour our facility free of charge, (donations are cheerfully accepted) anytime you are in history-rich North Alabama. But until you can plan a trip our way, please take a moment to see a few of our exhibits on this Website.

For more information, or to volunteer, call the Museum at 256-771-7578 or email

Hours Monday thru Saturday from 9:00AM - 3:00PM - Scheduled group tours available.
