Idaho Military History Museum

The renovated museum in February 2018

The Idaho Military History Museum, located at Gowen Field, features exhibits relating to every branch of the service and each war in which Idahoans have served from the Spanish–American War onwards; the Farragut Naval Training Station (now Farragut State Park, Idaho's largest), Gowen Field itself, the Medal of Honor exhibit, and the well-traveled USS Boise (CL-47) are in particular of local provenance and interest.
