Taking the Tour
As you navigate through the museum’s digital tour, please keep in mind that this is not the “official” tour of the museum as there are many other artifacts and exhibits to observe other than what is provided in this app. The digital tour that you are about to embark on is very different from the tours given by the museum’s docents. However, we encourage you to partake in the guided tours when offered in the museum, as the docents’ expert knowledge and first-hand accounts of military service offer far more than what this digital tour can offer. The purpose of this app and its content is to highlight some of the interesting artifacts, service members, and bits of history that you will not find in any of your academic textbooks, being taught in your history class. Please take time to enjoy the museum artifacts, displays, touch screens, and videos while traveling in between each digital tour site.
Accessing the Phone App

If you are using an Andriod or other type of Smart Phone, you will need to download a QR Scanner app to your device before scanning.
Phone App Navigation
While touring the Museum, You will see various green tags attached to various artifacts and vehicles. To access the information, simply scan ANY of the QR Codes, like this example, using your iPhone's camera or your QR Scanner app. Once scanned, your smart phone's web-browser will open-up to the artifact's digital location.
Video Buttons
