[edit] Mission
The museum's mission is to collect, preserve, exhibit and interpret the history of the Quartermaster Corps from its birth in 1775 to the present. To this end, the Museum has collected over 23,000 artifacts relating to the Quartermaster Corps' history and has assembled thousands of documents relating to Quartermaster Corps history.
Since 1957 the Quartermaster Museum has preserved the history and heritage of the U.S. Army Quartermaster Corps, the Army's oldest logistic branch. For more than two centuries Quartermaster soldiers have fed, clothed and equipped the United States Army.
The Museum receives over 70,000 visitors a year, including over 17,000 Quartermaster soldiers who get history training.
