I have been to about eight of them, and always enjoy seeing new ones. This was a real treat, and they were very honest with their depiction of his work and life. The movie they show was fascinating and very informative. The displays were professionally done, and the staff was very friendly. LOVE this place! Makes you feel proud to be an American!
