WELCOME
The Military Memorial Museum is a subdivision of The Nelson Museum of the West (a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation) located in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The collection began with the goal of acquiring uniforms, saddles, firearms and sabers depicting all of the enlisted and officers of the U.S. Cavalry from the Civil War to 1943 when the horse Cavalry was disbanded.
The Museum has met that goal and expanded
the collection far beyond the Cavalry.
Included are
collections of 20th century dress uniforms,
army air service and air corps uniforms. The
collection now specializes in General Officers’
uniforms of the United States Army and
the United States Air Force.
Not only are the uniforms owned by
General Officers featured, but the
collection also includes all uniform
types authorized to be worn by
General Officers in the United States
Air Force and the United States
Army since 1942.
We hope you enjoy this website and
we solicit your comments.
