Mission43 partners with the warhawk air museum
Mission43 values its partnership with the Warhawk Air Museum in Nampa, which is currently raising funds for its Global War on Terror (GWOT) museum expansion project. This project will establish the first museum dedicated to post-9/11 veterans' contributions and sacrifices, right here in our Idaho community.

For the Mission43 team, comprised of veterans and military spouses who experienced the Global War on Terror firsthand, this project holds deep significance. Currently, there is no dedicated place for our children to learn about the experiences of the soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines who served in Afghanistan, Iraq, Africa, and the Philippines to protect our homeland from terrorist threats. Our service was voluntary, undertaken with full awareness of the risks involved. Yet, our experiences of war were driven by the horrific attacks on American civilians on September 11, 2001. As veterans of the GWOT, we fought in our nation's longest war. Until now, there have been no museums dedicated to telling our stories.
