From the newest exhibits to behind-the-scenes glimpses of our archives, explore the museum here.

So you’ve heard about our ship, right? Did you also know we are the site of Louisiana’s Naval Veterans Memorial and Veterans Museum? Visit the museum to see the aircraft that soared through the skies of Southeast Asia during two eras of conflict, examine the dented helmet of an infantryman who stormed the beaches of Normandy, and so much more. On this page, we’ll share what’s new and on display in our exhibits and occasionally preview cool finds from our archives, so check back often.
