Wings of Honor Museum — Attraction in Walnut Ridge

This is a MUST for everyone! Yes, including their families! Every display has been created by wonderful volunteers that truly appreciate and love our veterans and active military. There is so much to soak in and learn that you can't do it in one day. We would get so caught up in reading the displays/exhibits that time flew by. We did go late in the day and they close at 5 pm. Get there early! It's free! Pack a lunch picnic! Definitely donate to help keep this incredible aviation museum open! Mr. Harold Johnson is an absolutely wonderful man! He's so knowledgeable about the airfield, planes and the entire area! He LOVES it when families or anyone interested in aviation/military/ etc that comes in! We're going to be volunteering our time there in the very near future! Mr. Harold is in need of volunteers. He said there is plenty to do! Oh! Don't forget to buy some cool items in their gift shop! (Cash only). Thank you Mr. Harold for a fantastic tour! We will...

This is such a hidden gem of a museum! The amount of information they give about World War II is almost overwhelming but it's all very neatly displayed and organized. One of my favorite parts are all the uniforms and things donated by local veterans and their families. They do a really great jump at giving you all the information, about not only the veteran who donated their things but also general information, by using a phone and number system. You call the phone number and enter the number of the display you'd like to learn more about and viola! It's very sophisticated for such a small museum. This museum also has a number of events that honor veterans which is nice. The only problem with it is that it's hard to find but it's WELL worth your time and as more people discover it, the more funding and donations they'll receive, and the more they can grow. I HIGHLY recommend...

This place is a hidden gem right in Walnut Ridge! So much history and the exhibits are really are really informative and cool. There is lots more inside than you'd think, just looking at it from the outside. Really well done! Frank (Wilson) is a wealth of knowledge about the history of the airbase at Walnut Ridge. Ask him about anything and he's more than happy to tell you a story about it. Super nice and gave us a great tour of the era and facility.

Make-A-Wish gave us a "reveal" of a trip for my son here and I'd like to thank them (they're awesome!) and the Wings of Honor for everything! I'm so glad we went and will definitely visit...
