National Infantry Museum

Question

Has anyone visited the National Infantry Museum near Fort Benning, GA? Is it worth it?

How long of a stay would you recommend? 2-4 hours?

I have an opportunity to drive by there and I am trying to find out if it would be worth my time to spend a day there (between Fort Benning and the Museum).

Thanks

Yup but a long time ago when housed in an old WWII wooden building! Was interesting then but a young shavetail thinks lots of things are interesting.

I understand they have built a new museum since we were there 20 years ago. But the old one was very nice.I would say 2 to 4 hours would be right. There are some things in the area too like Andersonville and the Confederate Naval Museum.

Visiting Andersonville alone on a cold, misting Saturday morning was unnerving for me just like the Little Big Horn.

Visited the "new" museum a couple of years ago and worth in my opinion. Of course it is free. Very similar to the Marine one in Virginia.

Worth the time, don't be in a hurry
