  This place was amazing. So much to see and so much bigger than I expected. Heaps of really friendly staff that are happy to explain what they can . This is also still an active army base so there are military people on site who also came to have a chat with us and talk about the equipment when we were trying on the backpacks and seeing how heavy they were . Heaps of interactive and hands on exhibits....the mannequins are a mixture of amusing and scary 😅 thankyou to everyone there we spoke to it was a great day

  Fantastic museum. Extremely professional displays, montages, information. You probably do need to be interested in Australian military history (as I am) if considering a visit. Loved the fact that you are even encouraged to try on, for example a WW2 greatcoat or test the weight of a Lee Enfield rifle. Very friendly staff/volunteers who are pleased to have a chat or say hello. Well worth the entry fee.

  Went with my father, and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. We had to head off after 3 hours but could easily have stayed for longer. Well curated exhibits and so lovely to talk with volunteers who added so much depth to the experience. Would have loved to be able to sit and have a coffee during our visit though.

  Well worth the visit. Lots of displays to look at. The volunteers were all very friendly and helpful with answering questions and providing information. Bonus of free entry for kids during the January school holidays. A kids activity pack was provided on arrival. Enjoyed the visit. Thank you!
