I've visited the this memorial many times over the past 7 years that I have lived in the DC area, but this was the first time my husband had joined me for a visit. We took the metro to Arlington as that is the easiest way to visit both Arlington National Cemetery and the Militay Women's Memorial. Once through security at the cemetery main entrance, it is a short walk to the memorial building. Once inside we were warmly greeted by a couple ladies who asked if we had visited before and if we needed assistance finding anything. I am a member of the non-profit that assists with funding the memorial and registered woman military member; so I am very familiar with the building, but it was still nice to have someone point out exhibits that had changed since my last visit and welcome my husband to this beautiful space dedicated to women's service in the US military. I'm glad we came and we will comeback again soon. Thank you.
Another awesome stop in DC. This is a "newish" memorial that has been kept in excellent condition. My veteran wife LOVED IT!!!
Bonus: great gift shop with really low prices!!!
The Womens Memorial is absolutely awesome. The staff are superb. Great gifts hope. As a female veteran, and a Chartered Member, I served from July 1972 to 1978, it was great to visit again and celebrate along side of other veterans.
Wow! Did not know this existed. Wonderfully displayed! Great location and just beautiful! Everyone should come visit for sure! Not sure if l
This memorials water feature was being worked on. It is hard to tell but on the left hand side is an entrance to women's history with a store. Glad we spotted it and went in. So go check it out we almosted missed it. They are not able to put out signs because of Arlington Cemetery Rules.
As a Desert Shield and Storm veteran this was an amazing experience and very moving. Women from Deborah Sampson in the Revolutionary War to the 13 women we lost in Desert Storm our stories, our PTSD and our sacrifice needs to be acknowledged. This museum means a lot to us that are here and to those that are our future.
Beautiful day out and a big turnout for Arlington, but not for this amazing exhibit. Went to DC as a youngin, and wound up in the Army straight out of HS. I went for a small trip down and I didn't know there was even a memorial there. It truly is an amazing tribute to the female veterans and I thoroughly enjoyed the hall. I wish there was more signage for it and a little more admiration towards women in the service. God speed my fellow Veterans!!
A most visit while visiting the area. Excellent experience. There is much to learn about the military contributions women have done throughout history in the USA and still making every day. The museum is well presented, full of character, …
