Bataan Memorial Military Museum and Library is located 10 minutes off I-25 at the Old Pecos Trail Exit. It is dedicated to the preservation of military history. The central focus of the museum is the men of the 200th Coast Artillery Regiment which was sent to the Philippine Islands in WWII to furnish anti-aircraft support to Clark Air Field and Fort Stotsenberg. Both regiments were lost to enemy action on Bataan. The museum was started by members of the New Mexico National Guard and interested citizens after the end of World War II. It serves as a Learning Center and works closely with public and private school systems.
