Jacob's Review: 
There is cowboy stuff, it looks like an old store that was a museum. There is an old bell you can ring, a mind cart from a real gold mind, and a Dentist chair and outside is a giant wood but it is really a rock - but it was wood that got old.

Dad's Notes: 

Fort History Museum - Tells the story of the US Army (and Cavalry) in the southwest. From initial movements, Indian wars and Apache clashes, to exploits of the African-American regiments activities from Mexico war through WWII. And, of course, the history of the Army around the Huachuca’s - due to is location near the Mexican border it has played an important role in the nations defense.

     Military Intelligence Museum - The evolution of Military Intelligence in the Army. The building itself is also neat, the gift shop volunteers are very knowledgable about local history & activities.
