Wow, what an experience for all to immerse yourself in the rich history that this airfield represents. Every bit oas interesting as you would think. A short walk down the the field from the parking lot takes you through some commemorative artifacts as well as provide an overview of the hangars and ancillary building used. A peek inside hangar 1 is awesome. The junior ranger pin is the best one of the bunch. We've collected many but this one is worth it and allows for an education on the history. The visitor center is open however the hangars were closed.
As a Veteran I try to visit historic military sites. This was on my list for a while. Stopped by after a VA Hospital visit. Great site.
Considering the museum was closed we still had fun. We bought tons of souvenirs and the kids played on the beautiful hill of the Tuskeegee Air Field. In all honesty I was just thrilled to be there in the same place where giants paved the way and broke color barriers in the military and helped win both wars.nThe young lady in the store was very nice and helped us know what we could see due to Covid restrictions.
Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site is keeping the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen alive and introducing their heroic efforts to so many people who have never heard of them.
Closed, but there are outdoor signs to read and the gift shop is open at the back of the main building. You have to go there to know about it because the sign on the main building entrance says the museum is closed.
