Hello guys,
I'm looking to put together a list of museums (for a website that'll make during the summer) with Korean War exhibits/displays/equipment - whatever - from around the world that I hope will be of use.
I've got quite a few already, but I'm a bit light on regimental museums with Korea displays (in the UK - there's far more than I've been to!) and museums generally in the US.
If you could put the names (+ country) of any that you think I should include below, I'll make sure they're added.

Thanks - they're added to the list!
Any more? As I mentioned, I'm also interested in regimental museums etc. with even a small Korean War section.

The Royal Marine Museum in Southsea, Portsmouth, UK has a small section on 41 Commando in Korea.

Got it! I went there - really good museum and the Korean section is comparatively quite big! Have you been to the Dorset Regiment museum in Dorchester? They've also got a good section.
Any more?

Thanks for the Chicago address. I have a class A summer uniform and some 782 gear, maybe they would be interested.
