The 1st Cavalry Division Museum was established to collect, preserve, interpret, exhibit and educate military personnel and the general public on the history of the 1st Cavalry Division and its subordinate units. Exhibits and vehicle displays trace the history of the 1st Cavalry Division from its beginnings on the American Frontier to recent service on the streets of Baghdad. It exhibits more than 150 years of cavalry uniforms, equipment and arms from sabres to assault helicopters. It highlights the cavalry's evolving role in conflicts since the Civil War, with an emphasis on combat during World War II, in Korea and in Vietnam. The museum has an outdoor display that features a wide selection of historical equipment, including artillery, tanks, trucks and captured foreign weapons.
