The National WWII Museum
New Orleans, Louisiana

The National WWII Museum is an interactive look into the lives of Americans taking part in the war. The exhibition is split into two parts. One floor focuses on the conflict with Japan and the other with the battles with Hitler. The museum does an excellent job of conveying how the war was won and how it affected the lives of Americans most closely involved.
