Well Worth the Time - This was one of the highlights of our trip. It made a great impressions on our granddaughters. Their dads are guardians for Honor Flight so they are already well aware of the service veterans give. It was well presented and done very respectively. I wish we had had more time to enjoy, maybe next time.

Absolutely worth the visit. - This museum very respectfully honors those men and one woman who have been awarded our nation's highest medal for military valor. If you are interested in US military history, this place is a must see.

An Interesting & Worthwhile Visit - Great way to spend a few hours in downtown Chattanooga. The tour is self-paced, with videos highlighting recipients courage, patriotism, etc. I spent an hour or so touring the museum, but I could have taken much longer. The history of the Medal was also interesting, and the videos from Medal recipients detailing their heroic acts are moving and amazing.

This walls and halls talk to you - These are our real heroes with stories that should be passed down to generations and never forgotten.

Highly recommend - If you are a military buff or a patriotic citizen this is a great place to visit. It took approximately 1 to 2 hours to view,you can do longer or shorter it’s your choice. The fee to get in is inexpensive. We highly recommend checking it out.

Give it the gravitas it deserves, enjoy and learn worth the time and money!! - This is for people old enough to appreciate the gravity of the service and sacrifices made. Go when you have ample time to read and process the details surrounding each act of heroism, it is a small building but if properly appreciated it will take a bit of time to make it through. It is humbling to think of what we grumble about on a daily basis and the lack of respect for our hero’s and our flag. Take teens here, not little ones… and discuss with them as you go along. It was an emotional experience for me.
