Bozeman Trail Museum
Big Horn, Wyoming

Culture, General, History, Military

The Bozeman Trail Museum is housed in a hand-hewn-log blacksmith shop built in 1879 to serve pioneers on their way to the goldfields of Montana. The collection is centered around the Cloud Peak Boulder, a stone with names and dates apparently carved by military scouts just two days before the Battle of the Little Bighorn, which was fought less than 100 mi to the north in 1876. The staff is friendly to children and there are some old pipe organs that kids are encouraged to play.

Warren Heritage Museum
F.E. Warren Air Force Base, Wyoming

General, History, Military, Specialized

The museum is located at F.E. Warren AFB, just west of Cheyenne Wyoming. The Museum is in historic Building 210, which was the Army commander’s headquarters at the turn of the century. You will find exhibits in the first floor rooms, as well as the museum annex building 211, depicting the history of missiles and that of the 90th Space Wing. On the second floor of Bldg. 210 are rooms that create a look back into the life of the men and women stationed at the post/base. National Park Service excavated an archeology site in 1991-1992, and the base has a Archeology Interpretive Center near Crow creek.

Wyoming Veterans' Memorial Museum
Casper, Wyoming

Culture, History, Library, Military, Specialized

The Wyoming Veterans' Memorial Museum is a non-typical military venue that is exclusively focused on the personal, intimate, and sensitive stories of the individuals who have participated in the military, military conflict and ancillary military services. This institution is not a warehouse for racks of weaponry and piles of gear. The museum is not micro-focused on an individual service, branch, or conflict. It does have a collection of material from the original Air Base, but it is not the keynote exhibit. The veterans are showcased and rotated often. Our displays with their stories evoke powerful emotions. The museum is a memorial for all those who have served this country.

The museum has operated in an institutional vacuum.
