Visitor and Education Services    
     

Welcome to Visitor and Education Services at the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center. The USAHEC teaches the public about the culture of the U.S. Army and the symbol of its strength, the American Soldier! We invite you to explore our site and experience the history, the feelings, and the person that is the American Soldier.

We provide visitors with a variety of historical and educational experiences through interactive historic tours, continuing education programs, special events, workshops and lectures. Currently, we host two living history events each year, a timeline event in the spring called Army Heritage Days, which features living historians and Soldiers from every period of Army history - French and Indian War through Current Operations. Our fall event themes change annually, but periods of historical focus include the Revolutionary War, the Civil War and the War of 1812. Additionally, we present a monthly and a quarterly lecture series, which feature renowned historians speaking about a variety of historical topics related to Army history. Please check our upcoming events page for a schedule of future lectures and living history events.

If you have any questions or would like more information about visitor opportunities at the USAHEC, please email Visitor and Education Services or call 717-245-3972.
