The museum is housed in the only original building remaining on the former Sick Quarters and is dedicated to the memory of over 300 servicemen from the 96th Bombardment Group (BG) who died during hostilities between May 1943 and April 1945. The murals were created by one of the school's teachers. The museum is described as an ongoing project of the veterans of the 96th BG, the local community and New Eccles Hall School. The building was formally opened on 23 May 1990. For more information see > http://www.geograph.org.uk/article/RAF-Snetterton-Heath---USAAF-Station-138.
