"It's a magnificent place to have a historical tour about Mississippi Armed Force."
"We had the best time visiting. Thank you Camp Shelby for allowing visitors the opportunity to see this amazing museum. What a fantastic museum and I was surprised at how big it was. The employees were knowledgeable and very nice. Highly recommend!"
"Little gem of a museum, loads of hardware outside ,and lots of information inside, great staff. You have to check in at the visitor centre, to the right of main gate ,if your in to military stuff a must visit. Got to talk to director Tommy couldn't of been more helpful/informative. It's on an actual base which was amazing to see also. If your near by defo worth a visit."
"It was awesome! So much history and artifacts to see, including arms and uniform from the Mexican American War all of the way through the Middle East. A total audio/visual experience with life size dioramas complete with surround sound. The collection of American armor and army aircraft was astounding, plus a few pieces of Russian armor as well."
"I really enjoyed this museum. I came to Hattiesburg on a day trip and saw that this was recommended on a travel site. I did not know that the Mississippi Armed Forces Museum was actually on base. Everyone was very pleasant and helpful. Even had a few jokes about my AL tag. Anyways, I learned a bunch from this museum. As crazy as our history is, I think if you are interested in the military and previous wars, this would be a great place to visit. If you can't stomach the brutal truth, then maybe you should check out something a little less honest."
