Have passed this building many times. Finally, did a road trip to see it. The website says it was open on Wednesday and it was even though the Maps app said it was closed. Glad we believed the website. The admission price was only $6 for adult. I thought it was reasonable. There are World War I and II posters on the wall. There is also an exhibit of the Texas Vietnam vets dog tags. These were Texans who died in the war. The vehicle exhibits was very informative. The special exhibit on D-Day was also very good. It is small and very good. It is worth visiting.
