I think we owe our vets more than a free admission.  In our family, if we see a military family or a guy or just anyone who is in the service, we thank them for their service and pay for their meals.   My cousin carries in his wallet gift cards for like Chilis or Olive Garden or Outback etc.  And if he sees an active military member out in public, he gives it to the guy/gal. 

This museum is on my bucket list of places to see.  I went to the tank museum last near Fort Knox and it was well worth the trip and the info learned.

Would like to visit that museum and tour the EC-135 exhibit. I was assigned to SAC HQ at Offutt AFB and was there during the last days of the Vietnam war and have some great memories of the time I was there. Can't believe it has been so long since I have made a trip back.
