The National Guard Militia Museum of New Jersey is dedicated to collecting, preserving, and displaying artifacts with a specific historical significance to the Army National Guard, Air National Guard, and the State Militia of New Jersey.

The Museum is also the home of the Center for U.S. War Veterans’ Oral Histories. It is the Center’s mission to collect and preserve the memories of Veterans and Gold Star family members through recorded oral history interviews.

To date, the Center’s collection contains over 600 interviews of Veterans of all branches of service from World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Operation Iraqi Freedom and other American military campaigns. Over 400 interviews are available in our online archives.
