NATIONAL MILITARY HERITAGE GALLERY
 

The Military Heritage Gallery is a permanent record of all veterans, past and present. By clicking on the various links, visitors can access information regarding veterans and the manner in which they served. Each record will contain the basic information of name, rank, and branch of service, as well as a concise history.

The California State Military Museum has implemented an online tribute to you or anyone who served in the armed forces. Whether you served as a cook, fighter pilot, commander, mechanic, or staff officer, you may join the Military Heritage Gallery registry at no charge. If you choose, you may post pictures or graphics for a $10 tax deductible donation to cover internet charges. This remembrance will be listed on the museum web site as an integral part of the Military Heritage Gallery. Visitors to the web site can recall the military experiences of their family and friends. There is no other permanent on-line veteran's registry in California.
