    As a teacher and historian who has visited a lot of museums, this is a must see. The exhibit are excellent. Staff were very friendly. We were lucky enough to be there to talk with a docent who was a pilot in a b17 and he had quite a story to tell. The whole space has been built and designed with care. It really paints a picture of the experience. It is a fitting monument to the men who fought in the air over Europe. This is worth driving out of your way for.

    Fabulous! Worth every penny. If you get an offer from a docent named Randy to listen to his lecture/talk during your visit SAY YES! What a great storyteller! I enjoyed the sections on POWs and the WASP. Both were very informative.
