Love to Travel - Wonderful museum, honoring those from Tennessee who have received the Medal of Honor. We enjoyed speaking to the volunteers and seeing the collection that the museum has acquired.

We are both retired... - We are both retired military and enjoy visiting military associated events/facilities. This visit was a fun one with Clint giving us a great introduction to the museum upon our arrival. We were able to spend a couple of hours going through the museum and learning about heroes from Tennessee. We had walked the Veterans Bridge earlier in the week. Visited the Chickamauga Battlefield and the Trail of Tears sites the day prior which really helped to put all of the history into perspective. Not sure Chattanooga government markets their history in a manner that would bring additional tourism. Highly recommend this museum to all visitors.

Well Worth the Time - This was one of the highlights of our trip. It made a great impressions on our granddaughters. Their dads are guardians for Honor Flight so they are already well aware of the service veterans give. It was well presented and done very respectively. I wish we had had more time to enjoy, maybe next time.

Absolutely worth the visit. - This museum very respectfully honors those men and one woman who have been awarded our nation's highest medal for military valor. If you are interested in US military history, this place is a must see.

An Interesting & Worthwhile Visit - Great way to spend a few hours in downtown Chattanooga. The tour is self-paced, with videos highlighting recipients courage, patriotism, etc. I spent an hour or so touring the museum, but I could have taken much longer. The history of the Medal was also interesting, and the videos from Medal recipients detailing their heroic acts are moving and amazing.

Worth the visit! - Very nice displays, excellent history lessons. Doesn't take long to explore, probably better for adults rather than younger kids. Thank you to all our veterans!
