National Museum of Military Vehicles Commemorates September 11
with Free Admission
In a profound tribute to the lives lost during the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, the National Museum of Military Vehicles will offer free admission on Wednesday, September 11. This compassionate gesture, made possible through the generous support of an anonymous donor, underscores our collective commitment to remember and honor those affected. Situated near Dubois, Wyoming, the museum offers a poignant backdrop for reflection and remembrance on this solemn anniversary.
This year, on the 23rd anniversary of 9/11, visitors will also have the unique opportunity to experience the legendary M4A3E8 (Easy Eight) Sherman Tank, which is prominently displayed in the Rotunda of American Combat Vehicles in the General George C. Marshall Gallery. Guests are invited to climb inside this iconic military vehicle, providing an extraordinary connection to the pivotal role it played in the liberation of Europe during World War II. This event not only offers a once-in-a-lifetime photo opportunity but also a tangible link to our military history.
Dan Starks, Founder and Chairman of the National Museum of Military Vehicles, shared his thoughts: " On this 23rd anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, we renew our commitment to never forget those who were affected. Thanks to a heartfelt contribution from an anonymous donor, we are able to offer free admission, providing a space for visitors to honor the enduring memories and sacrifices of our military personnel, their families, and all Americans impacted by the events of September 11."
The Canteen, the museum’s onsite restaurant, will be open to serve visitors throughout the day. The museum will continue to welcome guests daily until September 29, after which off-season hours will commence.
