Veterans and others have the opportunity this week to experience the award-winning National WWII Museum in New Orleans free, the museum announced.

U.S. veterans of all of America's wars and conflicts will be admitted free to the National WWII Museum in New Orleans on Tuesday (Nov. 11), as the military attraction celebrates Veterans Day.
