Michigan's Own honors Michigan soldiers, sailors and aviators who fought in our nation's seven foreign wars, from the Spanish American War through the current War on Terrorism. It includes exhibits devoted to Michigan's Governors, 13 Astronauts and 30 individual Medal of Honor Recipients, making it the world's largest Medal of Honor collection.

Michigan's Own is "one of a kind" in the United States in that it is the only repository
devoted to the wartime experiences of one state's veterans.
