Military Get Free Admission To Valley Museums
Active military members and their families can visit the Allentown Art Museum and three Historic Bethlehem properties for free through Labor Day as part of the new Blue Star Museums program.
In partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts and Blue Star Families, more than 700 museums across the country will give free admission to military personnel during the summer.
The Allentown Art Museum is offering free general admission to the museum and to the two special exhibits "In Stitches: Quilts from the Allentown Art Museum Collection," and "Myths, Religion & Ritual: Indian Art from the Koblenzer Collection."
Historic Bethlehem Partnership will offer free admission to the Moravian Museum of Bethlehem, the Kemerer Museum of Decorative Arts and the 1810 Goundie House.
Other regional museums participating are Quiet Valley Living Historical Farm, Stroudsburg; Fonthill Museum, Mercer Museum and James A. Michener Art Museum in Doylestown; Brandywine River Museum, Chadds Ford; and The Barnes Foundation, Merion.
The program is open to active members of Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, National Guard, and Reserve with a Geneva Convention Common Access Card, a DD Form 1173, or a DD Form 1173-1, and five immediate family members.

Member Oo-Rahs!
Good Afternoon Louise,
The commissioning ceremony was a tremendous success! Thank you very much once again for all your efforts!
Have a wonderful day and God Bless.

Thank you for all your help over the phone today. Planning a Marine Corps Ball is a lot of time, energy and work.

Ms. Pappas,
Congratulations. You are more responsive and informative than any other website contact I can recall. I appreciate that very much. It’s really nice to have someone like you at the MCA “front door.”
Sincerely, Alfred
It is ALWAYS a pleasure to work with a consummate professional such as SgtMaj (Ret.) Frank Pulley. As the company 1stSgt for Hotel Company, MCT, SOI (West), I’ve attended a number of his briefs and one can visually see a positive change in the student’s attention levels as the SgtMaj delivers his presentation. The SgtMaj truly cares about the Marines and the Marine Corps and represents the MCA in an extremely admirable manner. It has been my experience that all Marines (including myself) benefit from the experience of attending a MCA presentation. And regardless of rank or years of experience, Marines should always seek to increase their level of proficiency and knowledge and MCA briefs provide us with that opportunity.
I received them this morning. Thank you so much for your help! you guys are awesome and you will have my business for any uniform or military need in the future as well as a hearty recommendation via word of mouth to anyone who wonders where they should purchase uniforms from!
Member saying thanks to our Customer Service Representative, Skylar Hand.
Thank you so much for your help!!! I think you should be commended for your excellent customer service! You were extremely helpful and I was about to get upset about my order but you handled it before I could say anything. You are the best. Thanks again!!!
Jessica,
Thank you so much for taking the extra time and making the extra effort
to ship another hat to me for my husband last week. The second hat
arrived last Thursday... and he was tickled with it. Although it may be
"only a hat" it is a very special hat in many ways. He will always be a
proud Marine dad, and your kindness is very much appreciated.
Ma’am,
Just wanted to let you know that I got the sword yesterday with time to spare. It showed up unscathed due to the excellent packing job despite the rough postal process. And most importantly it looks great and the Bahraini’s couldn’t be happier! Thanks again for all of your assistance.

I'm so pleased to see all the great merchandise you are stocking and the awesome promotions. Your store was dissappointing a few years ago and I shopped only at Sgt Grit.
Now, I can find what I am looking for with you guys.
Great job!
Thanks for the email; I purchased the two Marine Corps. Cups for my brother who served with the First Marine Div. in Vietnam . He was very pleased with the cups and I was very impressed with the purchase. The online catalog did not do the product the justice it deserved. Thanks again and I am sure you will hear from me in the future.
