The legacy of the millions of servicemen and women who served at For Campbell, in peace and war, deserves to be recorded for history.
Their service teaches courage, tradition, leadership, values, character, a love of country; all things so important to long-range security of our nation.

101st Airborn museum
Fort Campbell, Kentucky, USA
The 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell in Kentucky USA will be a new 4500 sq. meter exhibition space with 5.6 million dollar exhibit budget. The building, designed by Tuck Hinton Architects, is scheduled for ground breaking in spring 2009 with a projected opening of the museum in 2010.
The exhibition consists of two main conceptual parts: the history of the 101st from its inception in 1942 until present, and an explanation of how the modern 101st division operates.
Key moments in history are highlighted through integrated 3-D and graphic display bases which support artefacts, text and multi-media, and large historical objects including full size aircraft and ground vehicles.
