The Oklahoma National Guard will be building a new museum to replace the 45th Infantry Museum. Appears it’ll be relocating from the NE 36th & MLK location to near the Oklahoma Railway Museum.

Apologies if there is already a thread more appropriate than a new thread.

Well that's wonderful. I took a field trip there in Jr High and learned quite a bit about the Oklahoma connection through the 45th. Interesting how some of those things stick in your brain over the years. I also remember it not really having enough room to do everything it needed to do. So i'm glad to hear that they are getting a larger space and also expanding what they cover.

I know the Armory wouldn't have been a truly practical location, but that really would have been cool to be able to incorporate that building into the museum. Oh well.

this has been needed for a long time. the current location just isn't big enough and needs some major upgrades. i'm very excited about this!
