    Rarely do you find a local museum that is interactive, relevant, and well presented. This gem of a museum puts national events in local context. It's very valuable since so few people know about...  more »

    Nice little museum that is interactive for all ages. I never knew the amount of battle seen off our shores in WWII. Neat, informative museum for home front history.  more »

    A lot of great information on how this local area contributed to the war effort (as well as the east coast in general), but not a ton of actual things to see here. The museum was recently renovated, however, so it's nicely updated and clean.

    Great little museum! We spent almost 2 hours here on a hot summer day with kids ages 6-9. Informative and engaging. Docents were friendly and helpful as well.
