Home of Dunn native Maj. Gen. William C. Lee, known as the “Father of the US Army Airborne,” who helped develop its concepts and organization. The museum, an early 20th-century neoclassical three-story Revival house, tells Gen. Lee’s life story as well as the story of the early years of the US Army Airborne, and the use of glider planes during WWII. Group tours are available.
We have dedicated part of our store to a museum of sorts. The museum is free and displays over 400
firearms, curios, relics, and artifacts. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and we'll try to give you a proper answer.
