Buildings constructed for the CCC during their time at Fort Missoula including a motor pool garage, a boiler plant and an administrative building. Today these buildings are home to The Rocky Mountain Museum of Military History. The museum started in 1985 when Tom Wilkins of the Missoula Chamber of Commerce, approached local collectors and veterans with his desire to preserve American military history. Wilkins started the museum and served as its director until 1992.
Today the museum features exhibits ranging from frontier era wars to contemporary Iraq and Afghanistan wars. It has a research library and an extensive collection of historic documents. Its grounds host a variety of military vehicles including an M-7 105mm self-propelled howitzer and a Bell UH-1H helicopter gunship.
