Definitely recommend visiting the Museum of the American GI if in Bryan/College Station!
They have a large collection of restored and functional military vehicles, with which they do demonstrations and reenactments a few times a year. There are many military uniforms from different eras, often from local veterans, and a great amount of women’s uniforms as well. I especially enjoyed the military nurse exhibit and the museum’s huge collection of wartime posters.
Parking was ample when we visited on a Saturday. It took us a little over an hour to go through the museum. There are several ticket discounts available, including for active military and veterans, seniors, and students.

Pros: lots of interesting artifacts from various eras, helpful & knowledgeable staff/volunteers, great gift shop, plenty of parking
Cons: none
Very cool little museum if you're interested in anything military. They have fun events every so often too. It's not tiny, but it's not enormous either, so you'll probably spend 1.5-2hrs here if you want to really learn about everything on display.

This is a wonderfully & thoughtfully put-together museum! Definitely worth the trip. Such a large selection of military uniforms – one of the biggest collections we've seen. The items on display are not just generally collected items, like from all over the world … it is also about Texas and A&M – recognizing Texas & local heros & displaying their treasured keepsakes.
They have a staff member that is exceptional and I'd like to give a shout-out to Annie … she made the experience unforgettable! She's so sweet and friendly and she likes her tummy rubbed & will let you know that you are NOT finished. She's the museum's Corgi and she is such a sweet addition! ♥️ The other (human) staff members are all wonderful as well, of course!
It is extremely wheelchair & walker friendly – very spacious and the elevator is right when you walk in (so there's no searching for it). There's plenty of parking as well.
