The Veterans Memorial Museum in Chehalis, Washington is dedicated to all the men and women who have honorably served our nation in the Armed Forces, during peacetime and war. The emphasis of the museum is on veterans rather than on battles or military tactics. The self-guided tour through the museum’s exhibits begins with the Revolutionary War and then proceeds chronologically. The museum sees three virtues in every veteran: sacrifice, honor, and heritage.
